( clear her throat ) it 's situation where i need to protect myself . but if i do , then someone else will suffer for it . bill : so you 're thinking about throwing someone else to the dogs so you do n't get bitten ? olivia : exactly . bill : well , that 's just wrong . edmund : this is insane . you 're insane . dinah : you 're losing cassie , and you know what ? you 're terrified , desperate , and for good reason . look , cassie is not here , and i do n't know if she 's coming back , edmund ... edmund : stop this , dinah . dinah : ... unless there is something for her to come back to that she could n't turn her back on . edmund : and by `` something , `` i suppose you mean a child ? dinah : you need a baby , and you need one now . and cassie is n't going to give one , is she ? edmund : dinah , i want you to get your things together and i want you to get out of here . dinah : she was very much into starting this family , going through the in vitro process , up to this point . edmund : let me rephrase that . you 're sick , and i want you to get your things together , and i want you to get out of here . dinah : this is just about bad timing , edmund . it does n't mean that it has to be destroyed at all . now , think about it like this , all right ? if cassie had n't found out that you were the one who caused the fire in the barn until a few weeks from now , then she would have been implanted with the embryo and a baby growing inside of her . so what better way to make up for the mistakes that you both have made than to give her the greatest token of love there is : a child ? edmund : so i 'm supposed to believe you 're just going to carry this child and give it over to me and cassie when it 's born ? dinah : it 'll be my gift to you . edmund : dinah , you 're even sicker than i thought . ( cheers and applause ) patron : all right . jeffrey : thank you ! thank you very much . okay , mrs . winslow . mrs. winslow , let me -- cassie : i had no idea . jeffrey : i 'll save you the trouble , okay ? yes , i 'm singing with the band , and we do n't do weddings or bar mitzvahs , okay ? you happy ? you want anything else ? cassie : i was going to say i liked the song . jeffrey : excuse me . can i get a beer ? what ? cassie : i liked the song . jeffrey : you did ? cassie : yes . did you write it too ? jeffrey : yeah , i did . listen , i wish you would n't say anything about this to anybody . you know , we do n't normally , you know , play here , and ... cassie : ( laughs ) jeffrey : thank you . bartender : you 're welcome . cassie : wow . full of surprises . good ones . jeffrey : uh - oh . you did n't work things out with edmund about the fire , did you ? cassie : i wanted to , but you know , i can't . you know where i 'm supposed to be right now ? jeffrey : where ? cassie : fertility clinic , trying to get pregnant . jeffrey : okay . cassie : instead i 'm here , listening to the da play in a rock ' n ' roll band . jeffrey : well , there 's no shortage of things to do in springfield , is there ? cassie : i still love him . jeffrey : sure . cassie : i do . i just guess everyone has their secrets -- some we even keep from ourselves , i guess . jeffrey : what about you ? cassie : i guess the only secret i have is that i had that little suspicion in the back of mind that edmund had never really changed , and wanted so badly to be wrong . okay , you know , this is the part where you tell me that you do n't really feel like listening to my problems , and go back to my husband , right ? jeffrey : wrong . no , not this time . what 's it gon na be are you coming with me ? olivia : thanks for the support . bill : hey , i am sorry , but i do n't like what alan 's doing to you . neither do you . i think the only solution here is for you to walk away . olivia : as in leave spaulding ? bill : yes . olivia : that 's your solution for everything . you think that if i leave spaulding that all my problems are going to disappear . bill : well , look , forget about alan , will you ? and these threats that he 's going to take emma away from you ? that 's not going to happen . you are her mother . he can not do that . look , he just wants to rattle your cage because he 's jealous of you . olivia : jealous of what ? bill : do i have to say it ? you have nicer legs . olivia : ( laughs ) bill : listen to ... your happiness . you have an amazing daughter . you have a great business that 's just getting going . and you 've got a husband that makes the ladies swoon . so that 's ... look , alan can only hurt you if you let him , okay ? you 've got to play by your own rules here , not the ones that he lays down for you . olivia : what would i do without you ? bill : i do n't know . come on . let 's get out of here . i 'll give you a ride home . olivia : i ... i ... no . ( laughs nervously ) i need some fresh air . i want to walk . bill : all right . well , then i 'll walk with you . olivia : i really just want to be alone . i 'll see you later , okay . bill : okay . olivia : so who 's rules are olivia : so who 's rules are these ? gus : anything good happening up there ? harley : i think so . gus : hmm . harley : ( laughs ) why did you come back ? gus : i really did n't want the night to end . harley : me neither . ( laughter ) harley : where did you go ? gus : `` where did you go ? who were you with ? what did you do ? `` harley : shut up . ( laughs ) gus : still sound like a cop . look at that little ... that little squished - up face . look at him . you see what i see ? ( laughs ) harley : ( laughs ) gus : spy . harley : he missed you . we all missed you . gus : me too . i really think we should all be together , you know . how you feel about that ? you feel the same way ? harley : i do . i 'm just afraid . i do n't want jinx it . gus : you 're not jinxing anything , because we 're going to win . harley : ( laughs ) gus : she 's going to win . see , sometimes you have to say things to the universe like that . and they just happen . see , i 'm going to stick by your side , step for step . going to walk in that courtroom , we 're going to win , we 're going to walk right out the back door , and that 's just the way it 's going to be . you hear me ? hey ! harley : hey . zach : mommy , gus , grandpa and grandpa liked my hot chocolate . harley : oh , they did ? that 's awesome . they have excellent taste . gus : hey , squeakers . harley : ( laughs ) jeffrey : what ? cassie : what ? jeffrey : yeah , what ? cassie : whenever i try and talk to you about my problems with edmund , you always blow me off . jeffrey : well , i guess that 's the noble thing to do , right ? cassie : you 're angry with me . jeffrey : no , i 'm not angry with you . i 'm trying to level with you for once . cassie : and you have n't before ? jeffrey : no , i haven't . and not about edmund . i knew what he did that night of the fire , and i kept it to myself . i kept it a secret . i 'm sorry about that . you know , i even stood in that barn , the barn where he tried to kill me , and watched him marry you . well , that was then . cassie : now ? jeffrey : and now i wish i could say that i 'm sorry that your marriage is on the rocks , cassie , but i 'm not . cassie : well , that 's a terrible thing to say , jeffrey . jeffrey : well , you know what ? no matter what i say ... i could say something nice to you or i can blow you off ; it does n't matter . you 're not happy . you 're never happy . cassie : no , no . you 're the one that kept talking to me about forgiveness , and you 're the one that kept pushing me and edmund together . jeffrey : away . cassie : what ? jeffrey : i was pushing you away , cassie . away from me . edmund : good - bye , dinah . dinah : do you think this is really some scheme ? edmund : dinah , you are nothing but ploys and schemes . i have no idea what twisted thing is running around in your head . maybe you just want to get the baby and hold it hostage . dinah : what baby ? without me there is no baby . edmund : then there will be no baby . dinah : there has to be . edmund : well , i had no idea giving could be so militant . dinah : all right . okay . this is not strictly about just helping out you and cassie . edmund : thank you . now , what do you want ? dinah : exactly what you want : redemption . do n't you see it ? this is about my salvation as much as it is about yours . edmund : how ? dinah : in case you have n't noticed , i have zero respect in this town . my family staged an intervention to impress upon me how much of a loser i am , how unlovable i am . in fact , you pretty much said the same thing the other day in towers : that i would stay in the hole that i dug for myself if i did n't find something to turn it around with . and that hurt me , but that 's okay , because i realized the only chance i have at redemption in front of my family and everybody else is to do a major league good deed . edmund : and you 've decided that carrying cassie 's baby is just that ? cassie : yeah . because , edmund , it 's perfect . because who hates a pregnant woman ? nobody . nobody . on top of that , it would be noble and beautiful to the woman i have wronged so many times , and to the man who loves her more than life itself . please say something . ( crying ) edmund : let me think . let me think . dinah : no . you do n't need to think . if it does n't happen now , it 's not going to happen at all . edmund : shut up and let me think ! dinah : i am trying to do the right thing here . edmund : what are you doing ? that 's what i want to know . what are you doing ? what are you doing , dinah ? dinah : there 's no point in staying , is there ? doctor : oh , mr . winslow , you 're here . look , everything is perfect . your lining is thicker than we hoped . edmund : and that means what ? doctor : that means we stand a really good chance of at least one of the embryos becoming a pregnancy . we going forward ? edmund : doctor , may i have a few more minutes with my wife ? coming up on `` guiding light . `` olivia : you really would do anything , right or wrong , for the sake of your kids , would n't you ? harley : is there any other choice ? olivia : no , i guess not . dinah : edmund , please . please let me do this . i can be a good person . i can prove it to my family and everybody else . just give me a chance to prove it . and i will give you a chance with cassie . buzz : peace between the coopers and the spauldings does n't have to be fantasy . it starts with us . you and i can make it happen . we 're the grand old men of the family . we start ; they 'll follow our lead . what do you say ? alan : i want to do this , but only when your family surrenders . that 's reality , and that 's the world i live in . olivia : zach is really growing up fast . harley : yeah , he is . with any luck , i wo n't miss a minute of it . buzz : well , look at the family man . first , you had my daughter out for fun this evening . now , you 've got the zachster in tow . you seem at home here . gus : well , i am . i think that 's enough , do n't you ? buzz : bye , alan . alan : buzz . gus : hang on a second . i ... alan : no , i think you 've made it very clear where your choice of home is . well , zach , i want you to come see that telescope sometime , all right ? you know , there 's hope for the future . harley : if looks could kill . but it does n't matter . olivia : what do you mean ? harley : i just happen to know that there 's nothing a mother would n't do to protect her kid , especially if her kid is a grandchild of alan spaulding 's . olivia : it 's awful to think that protection has to be your top priority . harley : well , you do what you have to do . i mean , look at me . i was all ready to plead guilty to phillip 's murder , until this webster guy turned up with testimony that could actually clear me . olivia : why ... if you were n't guilty , why would you say that you were ? harley : protection . i could n't risk being found guilty and then given a life sentence . watching my children grow up from behind the glass partition of a prison visiting room ? no . no , at least this way i 'd be out in time to see them graduate from school , you know , get married , maybe start their own families . at least i would n't miss that part of their lives . olivia : so you really would do anything , right or wrong , for the sake of your kids , would n't you ? harley : you 're a mother . is there any other choice ? olivia : no , i guess not . alan : damn ! as if my day could n't go any worse . bill : looks like you 're missing a little air on the bottom of that tire . alan : are you responsible for this ? bill : relax . it 's just a flat tire . why do n't you just call your driver , have him pick you up ? alan : because i gave him the night off . that 's why . bill : then call a cab . alan : i 'm not going to leave my car here . bill : then you 'd better get changing that tire . alan : i 've never had to change a tire in my life . bill : well , looks like you 're stuck then . alan : you think you could help me out ? bill : i 'm sorry . what ? alan : you think you could help me out ? bill : give me the keys . alan : why are you doing this ? bill : ( sighs ) feel sorry for you . alan : i hardly need your pity . bill : but you need my help . lord knows you ca n't do your own dirty work . you have to have other people do it for you , like olivia . alan : do i ? bill : yeah . now , i do n't know what you have her doing , but i know it ca n't be good , so i talked her out of it . alan : well , let me close the information gap for you a little bit , since what i 'm about to tell you will be on the street tomorrow . you see , i am the proud new owner of 50 % of lewis construction building . your wife sold it to me . jeffrey : um , the band needs me back up there . i got to go . cassie : no , jeffrey . wait . jeffrey : what ? cassie : what do you mean , you were pushing me away ? jeffrey : is that what i said ? i didn't ... i did n't mean that . cassie : i do n't believe you . jeffrey : ( sighs ) okay , look . you know , maybe you do n't bother me all the time as much as i say you do , okay ? maybe you do n't bother me at all . cassie : i do n't know what that means . jeffrey : well , it means ... it means that i thought edmund loved you enough to really change and to make you happy . make you happier than ... cassie : than what ? jeffrey : what are we , in court here ? cassie : no , i 'm just trying to have a conversation with you . jeffrey : well , i 'm trying to get back to the band , so ... cassie : well , i 'm sorry . i just need to talk . jeffrey : yeah , you need to talk , about edmund , again , right ? cassie : i told you i still love him . jeffrey : well , that 's really ... that 's really too bad . cassie : now you 're going out of your way to be cruel . jeffrey : that 's too bad because , you know what ? from where i 'm standing , that guy is trouble and always has been . and you invited that trouble into your life . so you 've got to figure out how you 're going to deal with it , okay ? i do n't think you 're going to find the answer in a fertility clinic . and i do n't think you 're going to find the answer here , listening to some blues band in a bar . dinah : you want this . you want to let me carry the baby . edmund : what ? dinah : you called me your wife . edmund : oh , god , dinah , i just said that to get her out of the room . dinah : no , i can feel it . you 're going to ... you 're going to allow the transfer to happen . edmund , this is incredible . you are doing the right thing . you are . edmund : just stop it , dinah . just because i have n't outed you for impersonating cassie again , does n't mean i 'm not going to do it . dinah : why would you ? edmund : because you 're not my wife . dinah : maybe i 'm something better than that . maybe i 'm your angel . call the doctor back in here . tell her we 're ready . edmund : no . dinah : why ? edmund : let me think . dinah : what is there to think about ? time is slipping away , edmund . edmund : just let me think . let me think . dinah : no . no , there is no downside to this . edmund : of course not . oh , there 's no downside to this , dinah . dinah marler just happens to be carrying cassie winslow 's baby . nothing problematic about that at all . dinah : tell me something . how long ? how many years did you ache to be loved , to be smiled at when you come into a room instead of everybody running for cover ? edmund : until i found cassie . dinah : yeah . that 's right . until you found cassie , all you ever did was ache . i am still back where you were , waiting for my chance to be loved . and this is it . everybody loves a pregnant woman . they 'll want to be near me . they 'll want to reach out and touch my tummy and feel your baby kick inside of it . edmund : my baby ? dinah : yes . just imagine , nine months from now , cassie will be holding this beautiful child that you both have been hoping for . and she will be staring at you with wonder and gratitude , because there will have been a miracle . edmund : i can't . i can't . dinah : edmund . edmund , please . you let me do this one selfless thing , and i 'll be saved , and i will be loved as much as the woman who calls herself your wife . edmund : dinah , i want nothing more than to have a son or a daughter with cassie . but i 'm not going to resort to something as twisted and as desperate as using you to do it . dinah : do n't say that . edmund : i have to believe my love with cassie is strong enough to bring her back so we can try again . dinah : what if you 're wrong ? edmund : i ca n't be . dinah , her love is my salvation . it 's not going to be some messianic vision of yours . i 'm sorry , but you 're going to have to find your redemption somewhere else . dinah : edmund , come on . where are you going ? where are you going ? edmund : i 'm going to tell the staff that my wife is n't here . dinah : edmund , please . please let me do this . i can be a good person . i can prove it to my family and everybody else . just give me a chance to prove it , and i will give you a chance with cassie . edmund : no . ( phone rings ) cassie ? cassie : hi . edmund : how are you ? where are you ? no , no , just ... just ... i 'm so ... i 'm so glad you called . thank you . um , cassie , uh ... we 're in a bit of a time crunch right now . i 'm over at the clinic . and we have to get going on this . you have to come here if we 're still going to ... cassie : edmund , i 'm leaving . edmund : what ? cassie : i 'm leaving . gus : zach came out saying that grandpa and grandpa were digging on the hot chocolate . buzz : grandpa and grandpa , we 're not digging each other . gus : what happened ? buzz : oh , you know the old cooper - spaulding dance : one step forward , two steps back . it 's just ... gus : i know that dance -- that and the electric slide . buzz : ( laughs ) you do . i do n't know . there was something in your dad 's face though , you know ? i thought he 'd go for a truce , but ... just something i wanted to see , i guess . gus : you 're seeing the thing that everybody would like to see . buzz : i do n't think there 's any chance our two families can find common ground . gus : ca n't argue with you on that . starting to think you 're right . buzz : ( laughs ) sort of leaves you in a lousy place , does n't it ? gus : well , i made my decision . buzz : i think you made the right one . gus : you 're not biased or anything . buzz : in the past , you 've protected the spauldings . i understood that . they 're your blood . so i 'm very grateful now that you 're standing by my daughter . gus : well , i love your daughter , mr . cooper . buzz : she loves you . she needs you . she does n't admit it , but she needs you . and i think you need her . gus : i lost her once before . never again . i have a chance here to make it work , and i will . buzz : you better . harley : you do n't look so good . are you okay ? olivia : i 'm fine . i 'm fine . i just got a lot on my plate , and i have to make a big decision . and actually you ... you helped me make it . harley : did i ? olivia : yeah , you just put things in perspective . it really is about being there for your kids . harley : well , i 'm glad i could make the decision easier for you . olivia : ( laughs ) no , i did n't say that . listen . you 're a good person . and if anyone had to suffer because of phillip 's murder , i 'm sorry it had to be you . harley : thank you . are you sure you 're okay ? olivia : yeah . bill : you see , that is bull , because olivia would never sell any part of the lewis building without telling me first , let alone 50 % of it to you ... unless , of course , she was threatened . alan : bill , this is not about threats . it 's about emma . i do n't have to remind you how devoted olivia is to her . bill : she 's a good mom . and ? alan : yes . she would put emma 's interest above anyone else 's , including you . now , i do n't have to remind you that she 's a spaulding . you do your math . bill : so you 're telling me that olivia would sell me out without a second thought if she figured it would help out emma ? or if some trapped her into thinking that ? ( phone rings ) alan : i need to take this call . it 's your wife . have you been a busy girl ? olivia : busy enough that i wo n't go to prison , even though i 'm sure you 'd like me to end up there . alan : olivia , if you do n't have anything of substance to tell me , i need to go , because i 'm having a very interesting conversation . olivia : ca n't be any more interesting than what i found out . alan : which is what ? olivia : something that could have a huge impact on the outcome of harley 's trial . you 're going to love it . alan : you 're not bluffing , are you ? olivia : i 'll give you what i have , alan -- it 's a photograph -- on one condition . alan : you 're hardly in a position to call the shots . olivia : i 'll give you this picture , but you have to promise to leave emma and me alone for good . deal ? alan : if i like what i see , we 'll talk . olivia : i do n't think you 'll be disappointed . edmund : cassie , what are you saying ? where are you going ? olivia : i do n't know . i just need to get away , edmund . so i 'm going to take the boys and go . edmund : cassie , please . cassie : i 've made up my mind . edmund : do n't do this . cassie : edmund , i love you . but i ca n't live with what you did and what you 're capable of . edmund : cassie ? cassie : no . i 'm going crazy , edmund . jeffrey : you all right ? edmund : cassie , where are you ? cassie , talk to me . cassie : i ca n't do this , edmund , okay ? i ca n't do this . edmund : cassie , do n't hang up . cassie : i 'm sorry . edmund : she 's with o'neill . dinah : thank you very much . my husband and i talked about this , but we 're not going to be going through ... edmund : let 's do this . let 's make a baby .

( crying ) edmund : let me think . let me think . dinah : no . you do n't need to think . if it does n't happen now , it 's not going to happen at all . edmund : shut up and let me think ! dinah : i am trying to do the right thing here . edmund : what are you doing ? that 's what i want to know . what are you doing ? what are you doing , dinah ? dinah : there 's no point in staying , is there ? doctor : oh , mr . winslow , you 're here . look , everything is perfect . your lining is thicker than we hoped . edmund : and that means what ? doctor : that means we stand a really good chance of at least one of the embryos becoming a pregnancy . we going forward ? edmund : doctor , may i have a few more minutes with my wife ? coming up on `` guiding light . `` olivia : you really would do anything , right or wrong , for the sake of your kids , would n't you ? harley : is there any other choice ? olivia : no , i guess not . dinah : edmund , please . please let me do this . i can be a good person . i can prove it to my family and everybody else . just give me a chance to prove it . and i will give you a chance with cassie . buzz : peace between the coopers and the spauldings does n't have to be fantasy . it starts with us . you and i can make it happen . we 're the grand old men of the family . we start ; they 'll follow our lead . what do you say ? alan : i want to do this , but only when your family surrenders . that 's reality , and that 's the world i live in . olivia : zach is really growing up fast . harley : yeah , he is . with any luck , i wo n't miss a minute of it . buzz : well , look at the family man . first , you had my daughter out for fun this evening . now , you 've got the zachster in tow . you seem at home here . gus : well , i am . i think that 's enough , do n't you ? buzz : bye , alan . alan : buzz . gus : hang on a second . i ... alan : no , i think you 've made it very clear where your choice of home is . well , zach , i want you to come see that telescope sometime , all right ? you know , there 's hope for the future . harley : if looks could kill . but it does n't matter . olivia : what do you mean ? harley : i just happen to know that there 's nothing a mother would n't do to protect her kid , especially if her kid is a grandchild of alan spaulding 's . olivia : it 's awful to think that protection has to be your top priority . harley : well , you do what you have to do . i mean , look at me . i was all ready to plead guilty to phillip 's murder , until this webster guy turned up with testimony that could actually clear me . olivia : why ... if you were n't guilty , why would you say that you were ? harley : protection . i could n't risk being found guilty and then given a life sentence . watching my children grow up from behind the glass partition of a prison visiting room ? no . no , at least this way i 'd be out in time to see them graduate from school , you know , get married , maybe start their own families . at least i would n't miss that part of their lives . olivia : so you really would do anything , right or wrong , for the sake of your kids , would n't you ? harley : you 're a mother . is there any other choice ? olivia : no , i guess not . alan : damn ! as if my day could n't go any worse . bill : looks like you 're missing a little air on the bottom of that tire . alan : are you responsible for this ? bill : relax . it 's just a flat tire . why do n't you just call your driver , have him pick you up ? alan : because i gave him the night off . that 's why . bill : then call a cab . alan : i 'm not going to leave my car here . bill : then you 'd better get changing that tire . alan : i 've never had to change a tire in my life . bill : well , looks like you 're stuck then . alan : you think you could help me out ? bill : i 'm sorry . what ? alan : you think you could help me out ? bill : give me the keys . alan : why are you doing this ? bill : ( sighs ) feel sorry for you . alan : i hardly need your pity . bill : but you need my help . lord knows you ca n't do your own dirty work . you have to have other people do it for you , like olivia . alan : do i ? bill : yeah . now , i do n't know what you have her doing , but i know it ca n't be good , so i talked her out of it . alan : well , let me close the information gap for you a little bit , since what i 'm about to tell you will be on the street tomorrow . you see , i am the proud new owner of 50 % of lewis construction building . your wife sold it to me . jeffrey : um , the band needs me back up there . i got to go . cassie : no , jeffrey . wait . jeffrey : what ? cassie : what do you mean , you were pushing me away ? jeffrey : is that what i said ? i didn't ... i did n't mean that . cassie : i do n't believe you . jeffrey : ( sighs ) okay , look . you know , maybe you do n't bother me all the time as much as i say you do , okay ? maybe you do n't bother me at all . cassie : i do n't know what that means . jeffrey : well , it means ... it means that i thought edmund loved you enough to really change and to make you happy . make you happier than ... cassie : than what ? jeffrey : what are we , in court here ? cassie : no , i 'm just trying to have a conversation with you . jeffrey : well , i 'm trying to get back to the band , so ... cassie : well , i 'm sorry . i just need to talk . jeffrey : yeah , you need to talk , about edmund , again , right ? cassie : i told you i still love him . jeffrey : well , that 's really ... that 's really too bad . cassie : now you 're going out of your way to be cruel . jeffrey : that 's too bad because , you know what ? from where i 'm standing , that guy is trouble and always has been . and you invited that trouble into your life . so you 've got to figure out how you 're going to deal with it , okay ? i do n't think you 're going to find the answer in a fertility clinic . and i do n't think you 're going to find the answer here , listening to some blues band in a bar . dinah : you want this . you want to let me carry the baby . edmund : what ? dinah : you called me your wife . edmund : oh , god , dinah , i just said that to get her out of the room . dinah : no , i can feel it . you 're going to ... you 're going to allow the transfer to happen . edmund , this is incredible . you are doing the right thing . you are . edmund : just stop it , dinah . just because i have n't outed you for impersonating cassie again , does n't mean i 'm not going to do it . dinah : why would you ? edmund : because you 're not my wife . dinah : maybe i 'm something better than that . maybe i 'm your angel . call the doctor back in here . tell her we 're ready . edmund : no . dinah : why ? edmund : let me think . dinah : what is there to think about ? time is slipping away , edmund . edmund : just let me think . let me think . dinah : no . no , there is no downside to this . edmund : of course not . oh , there 's no downside to this , dinah . dinah marler just happens to be carrying cassie winslow 's baby . nothing problematic about that at all . dinah : tell me something . how long ? how many years did you ache to be loved , to be smiled at when you come into a room instead of everybody running for cover ? edmund : until i found cassie . dinah : yeah . that 's right . until you found cassie , all you ever did was ache . i am still back where you were , waiting for my chance to be loved . and this is it . everybody loves a pregnant woman . they 'll want to be near me . they 'll want to reach out and touch my tummy and feel your baby kick inside of it . edmund : my baby ? dinah : yes . just imagine , nine months from now , cassie will be holding this beautiful child that you both have been hoping for . and she will be staring at you with wonder and gratitude , because there will have been a miracle . edmund : i can't . i can't . dinah : edmund . edmund , please . you let me do this one selfless thing , and i 'll be saved , and i will be loved as much as the woman who calls herself your wife . edmund : dinah , i want nothing more than to have a son or a daughter with cassie . but i 'm not going to resort to something as twisted and as desperate as using you to do it . dinah : do n't say that . edmund : i have to believe my love with cassie is strong enough to bring her back so we can try again . dinah : what if you 're wrong ? edmund : i ca n't be . dinah , her love is my salvation . it 's not going to be some messianic vision of yours . i 'm sorry , but you 're going to have to find your redemption somewhere else . dinah : edmund , come on . where are you going ? where are you going ? edmund : i 'm going to tell the staff that my wife is n't here . dinah : edmund , please . please let me do this . i can be a good person . i can prove it to my family and everybody else . just give me a chance to prove it , and i will give you a chance with cassie . edmund : no . ( phone rings ) cassie ? cassie : hi . edmund : how are you ? where are you ? no , no , just ... just ... i 'm so ... i 'm so glad you called . thank you . um , cassie , uh ... we 're in a bit of a time crunch right now . i 'm over at the clinic . and we have to get going on this . you have to come here if we 're still going to ... cassie : edmund , i 'm leaving . edmund : what ? cassie : i 'm leaving . gus : zach came out saying that grandpa and grandpa were digging on the hot chocolate . buzz : grandpa and grandpa , we 're not digging each other . gus : what happened ? buzz : oh , you know the old cooper - spaulding dance : one step forward , two steps back . it 's just ... gus : i know that dance -- that and the electric slide . buzz : ( laughs ) you do . i do n't know . there was something in your dad 's face though , you know ? i thought he 'd go for a truce , but ... just something i wanted to see , i guess . gus : you 're seeing the thing that everybody would like to see . buzz : i do n't think there 's any chance our two families can find common ground . gus : ca n't argue with you on that . starting to think you 're right . buzz : ( laughs ) sort of leaves you in a lousy place , does n't it ? gus : well , i made my decision . buzz : i think you made the right one . gus : you 're not biased or anything . buzz : in the past , you 've protected the spauldings . i understood that . they 're your blood . so i 'm very grateful now that you 're standing by my daughter . gus : well , i love your daughter , mr . cooper . buzz : she loves you . she needs you . she does n't admit it , but she needs you . and i think you need her . gus : i lost her once before . never again . i have a chance here to make it work , and i will . buzz : you better . harley : you do n't look so good . are you okay ? olivia : i 'm fine . i 'm fine . i just got a lot on my plate , and i have to make a big decision . and actually you ... you helped me make it . harley : did i ? olivia : yeah , you just put things in perspective . it really is about being there for your kids . harley : well , i 'm glad i could make the decision easier for you . olivia : ( laughs ) no , i did n't say that . listen . you 're a good person . and if anyone had to suffer because of phillip 's murder , i 'm sorry it had to be you . harley : thank you . are you sure you 're okay ? olivia : yeah . bill : you see , that is bull , because olivia would never sell any part of the lewis building without telling me first , let alone 50 % of it to you ... unless , of course , she was threatened . alan : bill , this is not about threats . it 's about emma . i do n't have to remind you how devoted olivia is to her . bill : she 's a good mom . and ? alan : yes . she would put emma 's interest above anyone else 's , including you . now , i do n't have to remind you that she 's a spaulding . you do your math . bill : so you 're telling me that olivia would sell me out without a second thought if she figured it would help out emma ? or if some trapped her into thinking that ?

[ scene_break ] beth : it has n't been easy , being alan 's wife . he 's more complicated than people think , but he also has a lot to offer . mallet : how did you feel when alan dumped you for doris wolfe ? beth : shocked , surprised . it came out of nowhere . mallet : did you feel hurt ? beth : of course . mallet : a little angry ? beth : yes , yes , all of those things . mallet : yeah , you must have felt like you were on the outside again , huh ? outside , looking in that window of that big expensive house . [ scene_break ] lizzie : i hate that house . i ca n't believe i 'm living there again , not after ... marina : after you shot at alan with a bunch of blanks when he tried to drag you back ? lizzie : it 's funny . you really know all of my secrets . marina : yeah , well , i know that you 've used a gun before , on several occasions . lizzie : say it . marina : say what ? lizzie : that i shot and killed my mother 's boyfriend , so why not my granddad ? marina : lizzie , i would rather talk about you losing jonathan and sarah and how that felt . lizzie : after they died , i felt numb inside , like nothing mattered . marina : so in other words , you had nothing to lose . [ scene_break ] beth : i lost plenty when alan married doris , but that does n't mean i tried to kill him . mallet : well , sometimes when we 're feeling weak or overwhelmed , sometimes we do things . beth : weak ? i 'm not that scared little victim anymore . alan took care of that . if i wanted to plug someone , it would have been doris , not someone i love . mallet : you love alan ? beth : yes . and i 'm not giving up on him , either . i think we belong together . mallet : wow , you really love alan . beth : is there anything else , a.c. ? because i 'd really like to go home . mallet : yeah , just one more question . are you aware of any guns in the spaulding house ? [ scene_break ] marina : the gun that we found above the elevator panel belonged to alan- michael , but he was in the hospital , so we think someone else must have taken it . did you know that there was a gun in the house ? lizzie : everybody did . marina : well , who 's everybody ?

[ scene_break ] mallet : okay , so alan dumps beth . why would she be at the wedding reception ? marina : to remind him of her existence . mallet : remind him with a bullet , maybe ? marina : no , see lizzie has used a gun to solve problems before . i mean , just a couple months ago , she shot alan with a bunch of blanks . alan is the one who is responsible for lizzie 's baby 's death . i mean , would n't you want to kill him ? mallet : well , yeah , maybe , but i would do it right after jonathan and sarah 's accident . see , beth , on the other hand , her loss is staring her right at the face . combine that with a very large cash deficit ... marina : no , beth is getting a settlement . i do n't think this was about money . you know , i think lizzie was really miserable , and she could n't stand to see her grandfather happy . [ scene_break ] dinah : mom , i do n't want to sound pathetic or beg , and i know that you have done so much for me over the years . vanessa : it 's just that i ca n't lay my hands on $ 100,000 right this moment . dinah : i 'm sorry for putting you on the spot . vanessa : sweetie , you know that i love you . i would do anything for you , but ... dinah : well , i love you , too . mallet : hello , ladies . vanessa : oh , mallet . good . just the person that i need to see . dinah : listen , honey ... mom , why do n't you talk to marina for a little bit while i ravish this man ? mallet : where are we going ? dinah : a little bit of privacy , so i can do this . mallet : hm . hm . wow , but your mom 's right over there . dinah : i know , i know , but she likes to see me happy . mallet : i 'm getting a little happy , but i 'm on duty , so ... dinah : i know , i know . i 'm going to be good . how 's the spaulding investigation going ? mallet : we 're making headway . how was your day ? dinah : it was good . it was good . it was ... it was fine . not much to talk about . but i actually have to drive mom back to the tv station . i drove , so i should get going . mom , are you ready ? vanessa : yes , i guess i am . dinah : okay , let 's go . marina , nice seeing you . marina : you , too . dinah : come on , let 's go . bye . mallet : bye . bye . vanessa : bye . marina : so dinah 's chipper . mallet : yes , she 's ... she 's maybe a little too chipper . marina : so how 's the whole identity fraud thing going ? mallet : you know , let 's stick to who shot alan . the people involved are a lot less secretive .

emily : you blame nikolas for mary 's death and you want revenge . but is that really the way to honor your wife 's memory , connor ? not the woman that mary became by the end of her diary , but the one that you fell in love with , the sweet , gentle , unassuming girl that you chose when you were still children . think about that mary . connor : i am thinking about her . and i understand it now . it 's my fault ! my mary 's in her grave because i put her there . emily : you are not the reason that mary is dead . connor : i abandoned my wife , emily . i let her think i was dead when i knew how afraid she was to be alone without me . i let her think the worst for months . and when she could n't handle it , she broke . the sweet , beautiful , amazing woman who would tear up if you killed a fly became so delusional and desperate that she came after you with a knife . you almost died , and that would have been my fault . damn , you must hate me . emily : no , that 's the thing , connor . i do n't hate you at all .

[ scene_break ] emily : you loved mary . even someone who barely knows you could see that . you did everything in your power to get back to her . and except for a series of events that no one could have predicted , you would have . connor : if every choice i ever made would n't have been wrong . emily : you know what ? you did what you thought was best at the time . you could n't have foreseen , connor , that mary would open her door that night to a man with your face and no memory . if nikolas ' car had hit a tree two miles further down the road , if he had n't had a head injury , or at least remembered his name , if mary simply had n't opened the door that night -- do you see where i 'm going with this ? a half a dozen accidents collided and made a tragedy . mary was a victim of fate , and so were you and so was nikolas . there 's no one to blame , and no one deserves to be punished . [ scene_break ] luke : we spent a couple of incredible days together a long time ago . maybe you do n't remember me , the loan , the room number . heather : i had no idea what the room number was . but i remember you very well . luke : it was a strange time . heather : laura was out of your life then . only temporarily , as it turns out . luke : it seems permanent now . heather : what do you mean ? luke : i thought you knew . laura 's mentally ill . she disappeared last spring from the hospital where she was being treated . heather : of course i was n't going to bring it up . i assume it 's too painful for you . luke : well , it is painful , very painful . i try not to think about it . what good does it do ? but she 's lost to me . and even if i could find her , she 's lost in her own mind . heather : that 's very sad . luke : yes , it is . anyway , i thought maybe -- maybe i was hoping -- that that 's the reason you wanted to invest in this place , as a sort of nostalgia for our lost weekend . heather : maybe a little . it was the one and only time i got a chance to know you . we did n't exactly run in the same circles when i lived in port charles . you were focused on laura , and i was making a lot of mistakes . that was a very special weekend for me -- to be with someone i 'd admired from afar . but i do n't exactly expect to pick up where we left off . luke : well , that 's too bad . heather : what do you mean ? i assumed you 're committed to skye . luke : well , sure , i am , as a business partner . heather : well , i think skye feels it goes a little deeper than that . luke : well , then , she 's reading too much into a few kisses . no , the truth is that skye 's fine , you know ; she 's convenient . she adds a lot of class to this joint . but she is a spoiled , rich girl , cold as ice , and , you know , she drinks . she 's a messy , sloppy drunk , and if she does n't drink , she 's a card- carrying neurotic . so if you and i were here late one night and had a couple of martinis and one thing led to another , i would n't complain .

jj : it 's not for me . i just need to take care of something . bev : can you at least give us a hint about what you 're up to ? jj : it does n't matter , okay ? it 's probably better for you if you do n't know . but what i can tell you is that i really need you guys in my corner . rory : and not just for the weed ? jj : right , man . all right , so i have this crappy phone , and i need to test it to make sure it 'll work for this thing later . bev : the thing you ca n't tell us about ? jj : yeah . rory : international man of mystery . jj : all right , i know it 's lame , but i can promise that , if you help now and i pull this off , that this will all be over with . adrienne : ah . abigail : hey . adrienne : your mom 's busy . abigail : oh , i know . that 's why i 'm here . adrienne : no , no . not that kind of busy . she -- let 's just give her a couple of minutes . abigail : what 's going on ? adrienne : she 's just having a chat with a very nice , available man . a nice man who 's gon na remind jenn that she 's a beautiful woman and quite a catch . and you 're frowning . why ? abigail : i do n't know . i just -- i guess this is n't where i expected my mom to be right now . but you 're right . you 're totally right . there 's no reason that mom should be living like a nun . adrienne : mm - hmm . neither should you . theresa : `` how could i have ever anticipated when i came to salem what would befall me ? `` what would befall me ?

sonny : nope . look , i 'm here . there 's nothing to say . you three murdered nick in cold blood . kate : whoa , whoa , whoa . sami : do n't use that word . sonny : gabi sa -- sami : oh , please , gabi ? she is upset , okay ? that 's just her way over - the - top guilt talking . sonny : `` way over - the - top `` ? you should feel guilty for killing someone . gabi : it was self - defense , sonny . sonny : when you hit nick in the head with the rock , that was self - defense . when you threw his body into the river and he woke up and you pushed him back in , that is murder . kate : what , were you taking notes ? sonny : you know , kate , that 's funny . i do n't have to take notes . those details just kind of stick in my head . sami : he was attacking gabi . i mean , she was afraid for her -- sonny : i get that . i understand that part . that is when you call the cops . sami : believe me , i wanted to . sonny : but you did n't . you were afraid , were n't you ? maybe because it 's your second corpse in , what , six months ? you knew how bad that would look . sami : actually , that 's not what i was thinking . sonny : great , then you 'll have no problem calling the cops now . kate : you ca n't call the cops , and you ca n't tell anyone , sonny . sonny : yes , i can , and i will . you three might be okay lying to will , but i 'm not . ej : well , your mother just needed a little bit of help recently , william . she 's been distracted . will : i know , and i know why . ej : she told you ? will : no , she did n't tell me . i had to find out . and do n't play dumb . because it 's not gon na happen . ej : oh , i see . well , you 're sure about that , are you ? will : yeah , i am . i mean , she knows i hate surprise parties , so i do n't even know why she tried . ej : right , well , you know your mother . i mean , you put it like that , she sees it as being an even bigger challenge . will : i know , so can you help a brother out ? i do n't know . from the way she reacted , i think maybe you could -- you could talk her down a little bit . ej : how exactly did she react ? will : i guess a little strange . she said she needed to find gabi and grandma kate and do something before it was too late . whatever that means . liam : it 's true . the holidays are different with no kids . jennifer : oh , your kids are grown ? liam : we never had children . since the split ... i think that was a blessing in disguise . jennifer : i 'm sorry . please , sit down . liam : thanks . jennifer : so what will you do for the holidays ? liam : i was thinking about going out of town , maybe skiing . i 'll be around for at least another week . i 'd love to take you to dinner if you 're free . we do n't have to call it a date . i do n't even remember what those are . jennifer : [ chuckles ] it takes some getting used to again . liam : so if we just call it dinner , would that work for you ? jennifer : it would . i would like that . adrienne : abigail , you are a beautiful , intelligent , amazing young woman . and men should be falling all over you . abigail : yeah , that 's just happening left and right . adrienne : well , maybe it will . you are going out in the world . honey , you never know where a new job 's gon na take you or where your interests are gon na take you . sweetie , they say you should follow your passion because that 's when your passion finds you . abigail : where did you get that ? on the inside of a bottle cap somewhere or something ? adrienne : really ? since when are you so cynical ? abigail : well , let 's see . i had two guys that were pursuing me , and then they both just disappeared . adrienne : uh - huh , is that what really happened ? abigail : one disappeared , and one turned out to be a liar . guess which one i had chosen . adrienne : so you learn from that , abigail . abigail : i did . i learned from that that you should n't ever trust men . seems to be the one area where i am not very smart . liam : okay . so i 'll be in touch about a day and time . jennifer : yes , i 'll look forward to it . thank you . liam : okay . theresa : want a glass of wine ? jj : no , thanks . are n't you in aa ? theresa : yeah , technically , but wine does n't count . jj : did you get a ruling on that ? theresa : oh , come on . please do n't do that , okay ? maggie was already here with her aa buddies in my house with all their earnest sobriety . it was way too much too early in the day . jj : so they did n't notice anything off ? theresa : come on , i know how to work this . i 've been in aa before . now come on . deliver . that 's it ? jj : well , i 'm tapped . you know , it 's christmas . i had to buy presents . theresa : oh . dude , i gave you money . i at least expect a return on my investment . this is very disappointing , jj . you do not want to disappoint me again . sami : look , you think i like lying to will ? sonny : i do n't care if you like it or not . you 're still doing it . nick was will 's cousin . you had no right to do what you did . gabi : no right ? you have no idea what happened . sami : oh , come on . you heard us , right ? you heard what he was doing to gabi . he had her on the gr -- gabi , you have to tell him . gabi : sonny , he had me on the ground , okay ? he was on top of me , and he was pulling on my clothes , and the harder i fought , the tighter he held on , and he was gon na -- sonny , he was going to -- kate : nick was the aggressor , okay ? the aggressor . sonny : i know . and i understand that . i get that . it was self - defense . were there any witnesses ? kate : yeah , well , you know , actually a little earlier there were in the square . sonny : what ? kate : yes , nick and gabi were there , and they were arguing very loudly , very publicly , because she had just found out that he had orchestrated the whole move to new york . gabi : i was furious at him , and i was screaming at him -- kate : well , not only that . she also swore that she would get him out of her life for good , and if he shows up dead a little later at her hands ... sami : it seems premeditated . just like what happened with bernardi and me . nobody would have believed her story . sonny : mm - mm . mm - mm . nick was not dead by gabi 's hand . it did n't have to be this way . gabi : [ sighs ] kate : looking at you , sami . sami : oh , great . so it 's all my fault now ? kate : well , you did declare him dead . sami : i thought he was dead when we were dragging him to the river . sonny : and when he was n't , you thought it was okay to let him drown because you did n't like him ? nick was a creep , but he did not deserve to die . and you -- you were in love with him at one point . did you really want to see him dead ? gabi : no , of course not . kate : now you just need to stop , okay ? none of us wanted to see nick dead . it was just an ugly chain of events we all regretted . but the big question is now , are you gon na let the three of us spend the rest of our lives in prison because of a horrific mistake ? we 're going across america to let people try sonny : you want me to keep this secret ? sami : you have to . kate : okay , sami . sami : well , he does . he ca n't ever tell anyone . sonny : i do not keep secrets from will . gabi : you can , and you have , sonny . look , i would n't ask if it were just for me . sami : it 's for the baby . it 's for arianna . kate : think of what it would do to her to lose her mother , to lose her grandmother , and me . sami : her great - grandmother . kate : in one fell swoop . how are you gon na explain that to a little girl ? sonny : telling will would n't put you in jail . sami : why would you tell him ? i mean , he already carries so much guilt . do n't you think this could push him over the edge ? think about that innocent , sweet baby . that 's what we 're doing . kate : you just never know when to stop , do you ? jennifer : yes , that was me making dinner plans with a man , aunt maggie . maggie : you do n't have to explain yourself to me . jennifer : well , that 's not what the look on your face says . maggie : oh , jenn , look , it 's your life . if you think you 're ready to date , then -- jennifer : no , aunt maggie , listen , it 's not -- it 's not a date . really . it 's dinner . i 'm sorry . i feel sensitive because people said i rushed things after jack when daniel and i got together . maggie : i did n't think that . you and daniel have a long history . i mean , you already had strong feelings for each other , so , yeah , natural that the two of you would get back together . jennifer : yeah , i suppose . unlike daniel and theresa getting together . nothing natural about that , is there ? and talk about rushing things . jj : i get it . but maybe after new year 's -- theresa : no , that is so too late . jj : let me see what i can do . maybe i can call in a favor . theresa : yeah . jj : hey , yeah , i need some stuff . what do you want ? theresa : what does he have ? jj : all right , just a sec . whatever you want . you were the one who offered me `` g `` that night . theresa : yeah , i did . so what ? jj : so do you want more ? i got the tree , open the door ! ahh ! maggie : well , holidays are the hardest , are n't they ?

the aggressor . sonny : i know . and i understand that . i get that . it was self - defense . were there any witnesses ? kate : yeah , well , you know , actually a little earlier there were in the square . sonny : what ?

[ chuckles softly ] has it been hell with phyllis taking over as c.e.o . ? yes . seeing her in that big chair , all comfy , kind of sucks , while i 'm in some crappy office down the hall , working on a marketing project that i could do in my sleep . but this barlow project is different . we work together -- two people putting aside their personal differences for the greater company . and it felt good . sharon : and that 's all you 're interested in , is you and phyllis peacefully coexisting at work ? billy : well , it 's not for nothing . sharon : no , it 's not . billy : look , i have n't forgotten what phyllis did , but i do n't -- i do n't want to hold any anger anymore . is that such a bad thing ? sharon : none of it 's bad , billy -- letting go of bitterness , you and phyllis working together . it 's what comes next that worries me . billy : so i should hate her for cheating on me ? all right . well , i can't . all the rage and revenge that i had -- i do n't feel that towards her anymore . sharon : and what replaced those things ? billy : i still care about her . sharon : i understand . i still care about nick , too . i always will . but i know that i can never go back to him , and i have made peace with that . billy : peace ? that 's a good thing , is n't it ? nick : [ laughs ] you are really working this . phyllis : i am giving you an opportunity ... to meet with a very smart , successful businesswoman ... who could prove to be a useful contact for you . nick : okay . phyllis : all you got to do is make her laugh at your jokes and tell her how great jaboutiques are . nick : while flashing the baby blues ? phyllis : yes . that 's like breathing to you . nick : well , that 's true . uh , question . phyllis : yeah ? nick : why is rebekah barlow interested in someone who is clearly with someone else ? phyllis : well , i - i do n't think i made it clear that you and i are a couple . nick : oh . so , what does she [ laughing ] think ? phyllis : she thinks that we 're business associates , which is absolutely the truth . nick : wow . what am i feeling right now ? am i -- am i insulted , or am i flattered ? phyllis : i think you should be flattered , definitely . will you help me ? nick : yeah , sure . i 'll go on a date with another woman . why not ? phyllis : yes ! thank you ! nick : you are the best girlfriend ever ! phyllis : thank you . nick : well , it 's not like i 'm not gon na get something out of this . phyllis : wait . what ? nick : oh , yeah . i 'm expecting some serious quid pro quo in exchange for ... all of this , you know , and using my charms on your friend . phyllis : you 've got a deal . ana : research shows tying merchandise with online content boosts product awareness and revenue . lp 's demographic are a perfect match for your customers . if you look at the document i sent you -- rebekah : i read all the documents . now i just want to talk to your boss . ana : devon ? devon : yes ? yes . i apologize . i was actually just , uh , trying to work out the problem that we have with renee not being here , 'cause you made a very good point that we are asking you to put your reputation on the line without you ever meeting the person who 's gon na be representing your company , and i probably would n't agree to that myself if i were you . rebekah : thank you for your understanding . devon : of course , and i probably should have made myself a little more clear when i said that renee could n't be here . i did not mean that you would n't be able to meet her . rebekah : does your penthouse have a beam - me - up option ? devon : no , it does not , but ana here is going to contact renee 's manager and arrange for a video conference right now . ana : i am ? i am . already on it . devon : yeah . so ... she actually just should be wrapping up her show , so you 'll be able to catch her in top form . rebekah : great . devon : yeah . ana : looks like we 're a go . manager says give them five minutes . devon : good . rebekah : i 'm gon na grab some water . devon : be my guest .

's body ... then victor disappearing ... then the fire ! and now victor 's gun and a bloody shirt shows up in the ashes . victoria : the gun and the shirt were planted to frame dad . nikki : by whom ? victoria : whoever it is obviously does n't know how j.t . really died because he was n't shot and he was n't wearing that shirt that rey showed us . nikki : well , you 're right about that , but rey is determined to find j.t . 's body . victoria : well , if he does , it will prove that dad did n't shoot him . nikki : i know that , but it could implicate us , victoria . my god , who is doing this ? ! who is out there moving bodies and planting evidence to frame your father ? ! victoria : somebody who wants to get to us , and we ca n't let them . nikki : i know . i 'm trying . it 's not easy . victoria : phyllis and sharon need to know about this . i 'm gon na tell them . i 'm gon na let hannah know that i 'm home , and then i 'll text them . are you okay ? nikki : yes . i just need a minute to catch my breath . that 's all . victoria : when i come back down , i 'm gon na make you some tea . nikki : thanks , honey . [ sighs heavily ] devon : i wanted to keep this between me and the doctor . ana : i 'm sorry . i was getting a document for a meeting out of your briefcase , and i saw the bottle . i recognized the name of the drug . a friend of mine at school took them for anxiety attacks . devon : i would n't really call it an attack . ana : you were pretty freaked out . devon : he just prescribed them for some stress i 've been having lately . that 's all . ana : then you told him how bad things have gotten ? devon : i talked about hilary and i talked about how much i miss her and how difficult it 's been but it 's all very normal for people who 've lost the love of their lives . ana : normal is n't a thing when it comes to grief . you 're drowning . you had a panic attack . devon : okay . all right . yes , i did . i had an attack . what do you want from me ? ana : i do n't want anything from you . i just want you to know it 's okay to ask for help . and i 'll be here if you do . victoria : kids are asleep . [ doorbell rings ] oh . that must be sharon . i could n't reach phyllis . sharon : what 's going on ? you said on the phone rey brought you in for questioning but you did n't say why . victoria : he found something . sharon : j.t . 's body ? victoria : no . a shirt with j.t . 's blood on it . nikki : and , thanks to the fire in our stables , a literal smoking gun . nick : phyllis tells me you were hoping to get something from me that you ca n't get from her . rebekah : she said you have a lot to offer . nick : well , ask me everything you ever wanted to know about jaboutiques but were afraid to ask . rebekah : oh , i 'm not afraid of anything . nick : love it . well , fire away . rebekah : how about foot traffic ? you own the properties that jabot is leasing for their stores . can you tell me about the surrounding businesses ? nick : well , my marketing team has done extensive research on all of the buildings where the jaboutiques are located . they are all rented at 100 % capacity . the retailers are all very high end who appeal to a wide array of females , all with tremendous buying potential . rebekah : sounds like you know a lot about women and what they like . nick : [ chuckles ] um ... yes , i , uh -- i have several female relatives who cover pretty much every age group . i also have a number of women working with me at dark horse , including my v.p . of p.r . , my personal attorney , and executive assistant . rebekah : quite an operation . not even in business for a year and already one of the top commercial real - estate firms in the nation . it 's impressive . nick : same to you . i mean , your cosmetics company is insane . you 've created an unbelievable company using a consistent brand message and cross - platform promotion . rebekah : i believe in my product and myself . nick : and that shows . rebekah : i appreciate you meeting me here tonight . hope i 'm not tearing you away from a girlfriend . nick : i 'm where i want to be . rebekah : [ breathes deeply ] i ca n't think of a better way to end an already amazing day . i found the perfect spokesperson for my brand , and if we make this jaboutique deal happen , it could be one of my most productive business trips . nick : rebekah , you will not regret getting involved with all the movers and shakers in genoa city . from music to fashion to real estate , this is the place of the future . rebekah : who would n't want a piece of that ? billy : hey . i 'll take a scotch , please . thank you . rebekah : after meeting with phyllis and billy abbott , i was n't sure hooking up with jabot was a good idea . but ... you 're a hard man to say no to . nick : well ... does that mean you are ready to close the deal ? rebekah : we 'll do it right now ... up in my suite . nick : lead the way . [ woman 1 ] this ... `` the young and the restless `` will continue . mariah : what if there 's nobody else out there for me ? what if , after i break up with tessa ... i never find anybody else who 'll love me ? kyle : that 's what you 're afraid of ? mariah : yeah . kyle : you 're crazy . mariah : wow . you really suck as a shrink . kyle : i 'm serious . why would n't someone love you ? you 're smart , funny -- hilarious , actually . beautiful , and you 're real . there are tons of people who would want to be with you . mariah : oh , totally . i 'm just ... beating them away with a stick . kyle : i thought you and tessa were great together . but you should n't stay with her because you 're afraid you wo n't find someone else . it 's a relationship that has zero chance of lasting . mariah : no , i know you 're right . i know if there 's no trust , then ... what else is left ? kyle : not much . mariah : i have to break up with tessa . kyle : do you want backup ? mariah : no . no . i have to do this on my own . sharon : how did i go from living my life to being caught up in this insanity ? nikki : well , girls ' night was your idea , remember ? sharon : i did n't know it was going to end in you killing j.t . nikki : well , it was n't on my agenda , either ! victoria : no point in arguing . we are where we are . sharon : where is that ? nikki : obviously , someone is taunting us by framing victor for j.t . 's murder . sharon : or maybe victor really did murder j.t . nikki : oh , yeah -- right after we killed him . sharon : after we thought we did . nikki : oh , please , sharon ! not your `` j.t . dug himself out of his own grave `` theory again ! god ! sharon : could be the reality . victoria : okay . let 's just say for one crazy moment that j.t . was able to dig himself out of all the dirt that we threw on top of him and then dad tracked him down and killed him . dad would never leave evidence behind for the police to find . that is even more unbelievable than a corpse digging himself out of a grave ! sharon : if j.t . was n't killed in the stables , then who planted the gun and the shirt ? nikki : victoria , you do n't think that ... victoria : what ? nikki : could jack have done this ? victoria : well , he certainly has motive -- a lifetime of hatred . it would have been easy enough for him to steal dad 's gun . but how would he get j.t . 's body ? sharon : oh , my god . i ca n't believe i did n't think of this until just now . it 's obvious who did this . victoria : who ? sharon : the person who should be here worrying about this as much as we are ! nikki : phyllis . billy : so , where 's nick ? phyllis : he 's at a dinner meeting . what is this urgent business that you needed to talk to me about ? billy : i 'm worried about rebekah . have you heard from her ? phyllis : not yet , but i am expecting to hear good news very soon . billy : well , i would n't wait too long for that . phyllis : why is that ? billy : 'cause i 'm pretty sure she 's not thinking about our proposal . i think she 's got other things on her mind . phyllis : such as ? billy : look , phyllis , this is n't easy to say , all right ? i saw rebekah at the club , and she was getting cozy with nick . that son of a bitch . you have n't lived here for a week , and he 's already cheating on you . phyllis : [ chuckles ] ohh . sharon : it would n't be the first time she 's tried to implicate him in j.t . 's death . she suggested that rey investigate him , remember ? victoria : yeah , because she claimed it was to point the police in the wrong direction . sharon : that 's what she said . phyllis hates victor . what better revenge than to see him pay for a crime that she was involved in ? that 's win - win for her . victoria : how could she pull it off ? sharon : maybe she went back to the park that night we buried him . she did n't trust me to keep the secret . she was covering her bases , so she dug up the body and moved it before jill had a chance to put that sculpture up . victoria : and did what with it ? sharon : hid it . nikki : where ? in summer 's apartment ? sharon : i do n't know . but j.t . had n't been dead that long . she might have been able to get blood out of him or keep it until she needed it later . nikki : well , i do n't know . i mean , it 's hard for me to believe phyllis would do anything that disgusting . sharon : really ? phyllis ? nikki : okay . so , let 's see here . she dug j.t . up and hid him god knows where and then ghoulishly removed blood from him and then took that blood and smeared it on his shirt and planted it and one of victor 's guns in the stables and then lit the whole thing on fire . sharon : do n't act like it 's impossible . nikki : j.t . digging his way out of his own grave is more plausible . victoria : mom 's right . listen , think about how difficult it was for the four of us to move the body . do you really think that phyllis could do it on her own ? sharon : well , maybe she had help . victoria : there is no way she would involve someone else in this . sharon : i would n't put anything past phyllis . victoria : you know what you 're doing ? you 're letting your hatred of phyllis cloud your judgment . she 's been in this with us from the beginning , and i think she still is . sharon : fine . if not phyllis , who ? nikki : i can think of only one person . victoria : and it 's time that we put a stop to this once and for all . ana : i wish you had told me you were struggling . devon : i just thought that how i was feeling was normal . ana : there 's that word again . devon : i suppose i was fooling myself . ana : the rest of us , too . i had no idea how much you were suffering . devon : you know when you go through something like i did with hilary ... from the accident to the surgery to the time in the hospital to the funeral , you have all these people around you , all these people trying to help you and try to lift you up and encourage you and get you through it . but when it 's all over , they go back to their lives , and you 're left alone to deal with the grief . i thought that i could handle it . i really thought i could . but then the walls just started closing in on me , and i felt like i could n't breathe , and i just -- i wanted it all to go away . ana : is that why you were drinking and partying so much ? devon : yeah . and it did n't help anything . it just -- i was n't able to sleep at all . i was n't able to focus on anything . and then i started pushing people away who cared about me the most . ana : like your annoying little sister . devon : mm - hmm . i knew that was n't gon na be easy . ana : try impossible . going to see a therapist , taking anti - anxiety meds -- that 's all great . but do n't think for a second i 'm going to back off . devon : do i look like a fool ? do n't answer that question . please don't . ana : [ chuckles softly ] rebekah : let the celebration begin . nick : how 'bout we get those contracts signed ? rebekah : oh . i do n't like to rush these things . nick : take as much time as you need . rebekah : i 'm glad you feel that way . nick : or , you know , you could , uh -- you could sign them and then just send them directly to phyllis at jabot if you 're sure this is what you want . rebekah : oh , i 'm sure this is what i want . i 've thought about it a lot . besides , i 'm flying out tonight . and i want to do this before i go . and you are the only one i trust to take care of this for me . besides , i would n't want to put something so important in the hands of a courier . nick : of course . rebekah : do n't you think a little celebration is the best way to end our evening ? nick : sure . rebekah : [ chuckles softly ] oh . nick : oh . whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . here . or , uh -- yeah . here you go . rebekah : uh , i 'll be right back . nick : yeah . phyllis : i 'd offer you a drink , but i get the feeling like you 've had enough . billy : i 'm sober as a judge -- at least most judges . phyllis : well , then maybe you need to get your vision checked , 'cause what you saw was nick having dinner with a business associate . billy : what business does nick have with rebekah barlow ? phyllis : he 's doing us a favor . billy : oh , really ? is that what he told you ? phyllis : i set it up . billy : come again ? phyllis : nick is using his business savvy and his charm to convince her that the locations of the jaboutiques are good for her brand . it 'll increase revenue . billy : right . so , him going up to her suite -- is that the savvy part or the charm part ? phyllis : i have no idea ... why you 'd feel the need to come over here and tell me what nick is up to unless you 're trying to make trouble for us . billy : i do n't want to see you get hurt ... again . phyllis : so , you came over here because you care about me ? billy : once a cheater , always a cheater , right ? phyllis : that go for the both of us ? billy : i did some crap things to you while we were together , but i never cheated on you . phyllis : that honor goes to me . billy : sleeping with summer in retaliation was not one of my finest moments . phyllis : you never should have used her . billy : no , i should n't have . and if i could take it back , i would . phyllis : is that an apology ? billy : would it make a difference ? phyllis : are you asking me for another chance ? billy : no . that 's not what i 'm saying . is that what you want ? phyllis : i 'm not even sure where you 're coming from . billy : neither am i. i 'm not sure . phyllis : well , good . maybe you should go . billy : yeah , i think i should . fact is , every insurance company hopes you drive safely . nick : rebekah , how 's it going in there ? ! rebekah : good ! i 'll be right out ! nick : i should be going soon ! rebekah : just one ... second . nick : [ chuckles nervously ] wh - what are you doing ? rebekah : celebrating . nick : yeah . uh ... rebekah , i , uh ... rebekah : you said you were gon na help me . nick : uh , yeah . i think you should sign those contracts . rebekah : oh , but that can wait . this can't . nick : [ chuckles nervously ] rey : mariah . hey . mariah : hey . rey : everything all right ? mariah : it 's been kind of a rough day . [ chuckles ] rey : same . mariah : is the , uh , j.t . hellstrom case still messing with you ? rey : every time i think i 'm close to solving it , it goes sideways . i ca n't trust what anybody tells me . mariah : yeah , i feel you . rey : i hope your night is better than your day . mariah : [ sighs ] i have a whole thing at home . tessa : [ gasps ] aah ! aah ! ohh ! | ana saves the meeting with rebbeca by giving devon a pill for his anxeity tht the doctor perscribed and setting up a video conference with the singer devon wants to be the spokewoman for her cosmetics line . rebecca decides to seal the deal with devon . devon thanks ana for her help and admits that he has had a rough time and he has felt lost and lonely after losing hilary . devon tells ana it did him good to talk to the doctor even tho ; ugh he is still hesitent about taking the anxiety pills he admits they helped him continue the meeting . nick goes on a date with rebecca to help phyllis and get rebecca to sign the contract with jabot . nick is more then a bit surprised when they go bacik to rebeca 's suite she spills champage on herself and then comes back from the bathroom with sexy lingerie on nick is uncomfortable and wants to leave so he tries to head for the door . rebecca makes it clear that she wants him and she wo n't sign the contracts until she gets him . the ladies night group minus phyllis try to figure out who planted the bloody shirt and the gun registed to victor in the stables they consider phyllis and jack but in the end decide it must be tessa and something must be done about her . mariah decides to break up with tessa after a long talk with kyle and she sends mariah a text telling her to meet her at crimson lights . tessa texts back saying she is on the way but as she heads out the door someone puts something over her face and is drags her away tessa drops her keys before she is dragged away hoping someone will find the clue . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] phyllis : rebekah by jabot , exclusively at jaboutique . rebekah : i 'm not quite ready to make any final decisions , but you 're definitely at the top of my short list . the guy over there -- do you happen to know him ? phyllis : that one ? rebekah : dark hair , killer smile . mariah : you lie without even thinking about it . tessa : so , why are you still here ? victoria : j.t . 's body -- tessa claims she 's never seen it , let alone moved it . sharon : if the police do n't have it and neither does tessa , then who ? rey : victor newman is now the prime suspect in the murder of j.t . hellstrom . dr. charles : what i 'm prescribing for you is a low - dose , short - term anti- anxiety medication that will help you just get through this crisis . ana : devon ? rebekah : is he all right ? ana : devon . devon : [ clears throat softly ] ana : devon . devon : yes . yes . i 'm sorry . i just got distracted for a second . ana : we were just telling rebekah the best way to get to know renee is through her songs . devon : yes , absolutely . that 's right . ana : these are her latest tracks . they 're about to drop . we recorded them before she went on tour . please . all right . once you hear her music , you 'll see why she 's the perfect spokesperson for your cosmetic line . rebekah : let 's see . devon : [ breathing heavily ] ana : devon , are you okay ? devon : [ clears throat ] i just -- i feel like my heart is racing . i ca n't breathe well . [ breathing heavily ] ana : maybe you should take one of these . nikki : this is absurd . victor did not kill j.t . rey : i have evidence to the contrary . victoria : a shirt covered in j.t . 's blood and my dad 's gun buried in an arson fire is not proof . nikki : no . obviously , those things were planted there to make my husband look guilty . victoria : my dad did n't do what you 're accusing him of . rey : then why has he dropped off the radar ? why has he refused to take my phone calls or come down here to answer my questions ? victoria : because he 's working abroad . rey : he is hiding , and those who hide look guilty . victoria : well , he isn't . rey : okay . since you 're both so positive that victor did n't kill j.t . , tell me this -- who did ? billy : hey . pulling double duty ? sharon : i let one of my baristas have the night off . what can i get you ? billy : just a black coffee , please . sharon : how are things going at jabot ? is phyllis still pulling rank ? billy : actually , we 've come to an agreement , i think . sharon : one that favors phyllis , i 'm sure . billy : one that favors both of us and the company , so we 're all winning . sharon : are you ... feeling okay ? billy : i 'm pretty sure i am . no , i 'm serious . and we 're about to close on a major deal . and we had a pitch just now that was like a thing of beauty . i had a great idea , and she made it better . we were totally in sync . if i missed something , she picked up right where i left off . it was like we were firing on all cylinders , and , you know , it felt like old times again . sharon : old times in the board room or in the bedroom ? nick : i think i need to get my ears checked . i think you just said you want me to go on a date with another woman . phyllis : mnh . hearing 's perfect . nick : is this a test ? uh ... you know , it 's an interesting idea , but ... yeah , i 'll pass . it 's a `` no `` for me . phyllis : i have n't even told you what 's in it for you . nick : yeah . well , you said , `` go on a date with another woman , `` and , phyllis , you are all the woman i can handle . phyllis : well , that 's good to know . but this date has some fringe benefits , uh , that i ca n't offer . nick : [ exhales sharply ] ca n't imagine what that could be . phyllis : it 's rebekah barlow , the cosmetics - company owner that i told you about . nick : the one interested in partnering with jaboutiques ? phyllis : we are this close to signing this deal , but first , she wants to have dinner ... with you . nick : [ chuckles ] okay . phyllis : she knows you own the lease to all of our locations . nick : so , she wants to talk about the properties ? phyllis : exactly . nick : so , it 's like a business meeting ? it 's not really a date ? phyllis : well , officially , it would be a business dinner . nick : and unofficially ? phyllis : let 's just say the way she was looking at you , i do n't think she would be upset if your baby blues and your dimples were no the menu . nick : [ chuckles ] are you saying what i think you 're saying ? phyllis : you know what ? if you could just flash your killer smile to persuade her to sign on the dotted line , you would be helping me out ... a whole lot . nick : i - i just want you to admit it , phyllis . you are -- you 're pimping me out . mariah : uh ... can i ... tessa : oh , sorry . i have applied for like 10 jobs . i think holiday hiring is done . i think sharon fired me at the worst possible time . mariah : well , she had a reason to let you go . tessa : well , maybe if you had n't told her i was the blackmailer ... mariah : well , maybe if you had n't -- you know what ? i am not gon na go over it again . it 's not gon na help . tessa : okay . what will ? mariah : i do n't know . that 's what i 'm trying to figure out . i got to go . [ door closes ] ana : these are yours . look . there 's your name . devon : i know . i know . the doctor ordered them , but i never agreed to take them . ana : well , maybe you should . i 'm sure this is what they 're for -- what you 're feeling right now . devon : i ca n't take drugs . ana : devon ... devon : i 'm never going to . ana : ... i get it . mom , the drug abuse . this is different . these have been prescribed by a doctor . you need them . devon : i ca n't do that . ana : devon , please . even if you do n't care about this deal , do it for yourself . devon : [ breathing heavily ] additional sponsorship billy : you know , if you 're worried that i 'm not gon na be available for our wounded hearts society , do n't be , okay ? 'cause this shoulder right here -- this is yours whenever you need it , no matter what , okay ? sharon : aw , thanks , billy ! billy : you 're welcome . sharon : but that still does n't answer my question . billy : [ exhales sharply ] okay . [ chuckles softly ] has it been hell with phyllis taking over as c.e.o . ? yes . seeing her in that big chair , all comfy , kind of sucks , while i 'm in some crappy office down the hall , working on a marketing project that i could do in my sleep . but this barlow project is different . we work together -- two people putting aside their personal differences for the greater company . and it felt good . sharon : and that 's all you 're interested in , is you and phyllis peacefully coexisting at work ? billy : well , it 's not for nothing . sharon : no , it 's not . billy : look , i have n't forgotten what phyllis did , but i do n't -- i do n't want to hold any anger anymore . is that such a bad thing ? sharon : none of it 's bad , billy -- letting go of bitterness , you and phyllis working together . it 's what comes next that worries me . billy : so i should hate her for cheating on me ? all right . well , i can't . all the rage and revenge that i had -- i do n't feel that towards her anymore . sharon : and what replaced those things ? billy : i still care about her . sharon : i understand . i still care about nick , too . i always will . but i know that i can never go back to him , and i have made peace with that . billy : peace ? that 's a good thing , is n't it ? nick : [ laughs ] you are really working this . phyllis : i am giving you an opportunity ... to meet with a very smart , successful businesswoman ... who could prove to be a useful contact for you . nick : okay . phyllis : all you got to do is make her laugh at your jokes and tell her how great jaboutiques are . nick : while flashing the baby blues ? phyllis : yes . that 's like breathing to you . nick : well , that 's true . uh , question . phyllis : yeah ? nick : why is rebekah barlow interested in someone who is clearly with someone else ? phyllis : well , i - i do n't think i made it clear that you and i are a couple . nick : oh . so , what does she [ laughing ] think ? phyllis : she thinks that we 're business associates , which is absolutely the truth . nick : wow . what am i feeling right now ? am i -- am i insulted , or am i flattered ? phyllis : i think you should be flattered , definitely . will you help me ? nick : yeah , sure . i 'll go on a date with another woman . why not ? phyllis : yes ! thank you ! nick : you are the best girlfriend ever ! phyllis : thank you . nick : well , it 's not like i 'm not gon na get something out of this . phyllis : wait . what ? nick : oh , yeah . i 'm expecting some serious quid pro quo in exchange for ... all of this , you know , and using my charms on your friend . phyllis : you 've got a deal . ana : research shows tying merchandise with online content boosts product awareness and revenue . lp 's demographic are a perfect match for your customers . if you look at the document i sent you -- rebekah : i read all the documents . now i just want to talk to your boss . ana : devon ? devon : yes ? yes . i apologize . i was actually just , uh , trying to work out the problem that we have with renee not being here , 'cause you made a very good point that we are asking you to put your reputation on the line without you ever meeting the person who 's gon na be representing your company , and i probably would n't agree to that myself if i were you . rebekah : thank you for your understanding . devon : of course , and i probably should have made myself a little more clear when i said that renee could n't be here . i did not mean that you would n't be able to meet her . rebekah : does your penthouse have a beam - me - up option ? devon : no , it does not , but ana here is going to contact renee 's manager and arrange for a video conference right now . ana : i am ? i am . already on it . devon : yeah . so ... she actually just should be wrapping up her show , so you 'll be able to catch her in top form . rebekah : great . devon : yeah . ana : looks like we 're a go . manager says give them five minutes . devon : good . rebekah : i 'm gon na grab some water . devon : be my guest . [ clears throat ] ana : you good ? devon : yeah . i 'm good . rey : i have questions for you separately , if there 's no objection . victoria : why would there be ? we have nothing to hide . rey : great . you want to go first ? victoria : it 's okay , mom . rey : you can wait out here . victoria : you do n't intimidate me . rey : oh , i would n't try . it 's not my style . victoria : oh . good cop and bad cop . i guess you must be short - handed around here . rey : you know , victoria , i respect you . the loyalty you have for your father -- i ca n't say i 'd to the same for my old man . of course , i had a crap dad . victoria : well , i don't . rey : it 's obvious you care about victor . victoria : yes , i do . rey : so it must be killing you that he 's gone awol like this , 'cause , you know , the longer he stays away , the worse this is gon na get for him . so if you really care about your dad , tell me where he is . victoria : you claim that you want the truth ? i 'm gon na give it to you . i do n't know where my father is , and i do n't know how he can be contacted , and even if i did know , i would n't tell you ... because he had nothing to do with j.t . 's murder . and that 's the truth . rey : maybe . maybe not . either way , there is something you are not telling me . paying less for my medicare ? nikki : victoria and i have already told you everything we know . rey : so you 've both said . nikki : i do n't know why you would think we would help you go after an innocent man . rey : see , now , that 's -- that 's an interesting word . not one that would pop into my head when i think of victor newman . `` powerful , `` `` ruthless , `` `` unscrupulous `` -- those are the kinds of words that conjure up images of your husband for me . nikki : that 's not the victor i know . rey : oh , really ? so ... you 're not aware that the victor you know left your ex- son - in - law to die in a prison in myanmar or that he kidnapped jack abbott and tried to kill him ? nikki : you know , i thought you wanted to ask me about my husband 's whereabouts , which would be a waste of time because i 've already told you i do n't know where he is . rey : so , you were lying to me when you said he was in dubai ? nikki : no . when i last spoke to him , that 's where he was . he could still be there , for all i know , but i ca n't confirm that . rey : because his phone number 's been disconnected . i got the same recording when i tried to reach him . nikki : then why are you asking me all these ridiculous questions ? rey : because you may be the last person who spoke to him . nikki : okay . rey : so , can you tell me when that was ? it 's a simple question , nikki . when was the last time you spoke to your husband ? nikki : i have n't been in contact with him since before the fire . devon : hey , renee . i just want to say thank you again for taking the time to speak with us , and i will see you when you 're back home . take care . what you think ? rebekah : she 's everything you said she was -- fresh , young , hip . devon : she 's the whole package , right ? rebekah : she is . i do n't know how she could walk off that stage after performing in front of thousands of screaming fans and then just sit and be completely chill with us . ana : she 's always like that . devon : oh , yeah . oh , yeah . fans love her on- and offstage . rebekah : she was wearing my brand . i recognized that lipstick . and she had my product all over her dressing table . there 's no hard sell about how great my stuff was . she told me what she thought without saying a word . she has a totally real vibe . that 's exactly what my brand needs . devon : good . i - i hope this means that you will strongly encourage your people to partner up with lp and renee . rebekah : well , my team handles my legal and financial matters . i call the shots . devon : okay . rebekah : i say let 's do this . devon : yes ! ana : yes ! devon : fantastic ! great ! wow . rebekah : well , get me the paperwork as soon as you have it . devon : okay . rebekah : i have to run to a meeting now . i do n't want to be late . devon : absolutely . absolutely . and we will get those papers to you first thing tomorrow . ana : first thing . devon : yes . rebekah : great doing business with you both . devon : same here . have a good rest of your day . [ door closes ] ana : we did it ! devon : i ca n't believe we pulled that off . ana : me , either . but ... there are some things we need to talk about . devon : i agree . let 's start with how you knew about my prescription . kyle : when we last left our lugubrious lovers , our heroine decided to cast caution to the wind and reunite with her lying but not cheating partner . i 'm on the edge of my seat . what happened ? mariah : you know , this is actually my real life . kyle : sorry . what happened ? mariah : i ... just could n't go through with it . kyle : thought you 'd made up your mind with tessa , lies and all . mariah : i know . i - i guess i 'm just not there yet . kyle : there a chance you may never get there ? in that case ... could be time to call it quits . mariah : i hate the thought of ending it just -- just because of how much we went through just to even be together . kyle : from everything you 've told me , it does n't sound like you 're the one responsible for ending things . tessa 's the one who screwed up , right ? mariah : i know . i just wish she 'd told me what she knew before she did what she did . kyle : this unforgivable thing you ca n't tell me about ? mariah : yes . kyle : obviously , whatever it is , it 's bad . so walk away . mariah : i can't . kyle : why not ? mariah : i just can't . kyle : there are so many unknowns here , mariah . if you ca n't tell me more , i ca n't help you . [ sighs ] call me if you want to talk -- really talk . mariah : hey . i ca n't leave because i 'm scared . i am scared to death . nikki : every day it 's something worse -- blackmail and then somebody stealing j.t . 's body ... then victor disappearing ... then the fire ! and now victor 's gun and a bloody shirt shows up in the ashes . victoria : the gun and the shirt were planted to frame dad . nikki : by whom ? victoria : whoever it is obviously does n't know how j.t . really died because he was n't shot and he was n't wearing that shirt that rey showed us . nikki : well , you 're right about that , but rey is determined to find j.t . 's body . victoria : well , if he does , it will prove that dad did n't shoot him . nikki : i know that , but it could implicate us , victoria . my god , who is doing this ? ! who is out there moving bodies and planting evidence to frame your father ? ! victoria : somebody who wants to get to us , and we ca n't let them . nikki : i know . i 'm trying . it 's not easy . victoria : phyllis and sharon need to know about this . i 'm gon na tell them . i 'm gon na let hannah know that i 'm home , and then i 'll text them . are you okay ? nikki : yes . i just need a minute to catch my breath . that 's all . victoria : when i come back down , i 'm gon na make you some tea . nikki : thanks , honey . [ sighs heavily ] devon : i wanted to keep this between me and the doctor . ana : i 'm sorry . i was getting a document for a meeting out of your briefcase , and i saw the bottle . i recognized the name of the drug . a friend of mine at school took them for anxiety attacks . devon : i would n't really call it an attack . ana : you were pretty freaked out . devon : he just prescribed them for some stress i 've been having lately . that 's all . ana : then you told him how bad things have gotten ? devon : i talked about hilary and i talked about how much i miss her and how difficult it 's been but it 's all very normal for people who 've lost the love of their lives . ana : normal is n't a thing when it comes to grief . you 're drowning . you had a panic attack . devon : okay . all right . yes , i did . i had an attack . what do you want from me ? ana : i do n't want anything from you . i just want you to know it 's okay to ask for help . and i 'll be here if you do . victoria : kids are asleep . [ doorbell rings ] oh . that must be sharon . i could n't reach phyllis . sharon : what 's going on ? you said on the phone rey brought you in for questioning but you did n't say why . victoria : he found something . sharon : j.t . 's body ? victoria : no . a shirt with j.t . 's blood on it . nikki : and , thanks to the fire in our stables , a literal smoking gun . nick : phyllis tells me you were hoping to get something from me that you ca n't get from her . rebekah : she said you have a lot to offer . nick : well , ask me everything you ever wanted to know about jaboutiques but were afraid to ask . rebekah : oh , i 'm not afraid of anything . nick : love it . well , fire away . rebekah : how about foot traffic ? you own the properties that jabot is leasing for their stores . can you tell me about the surrounding businesses ? nick : well , my marketing team has done extensive research on all of the buildings where the jaboutiques are located . they are all rented at 100 % capacity . the retailers are all very high end who appeal to a wide array of females , all with tremendous buying potential . rebekah : sounds like you know a lot about women and what they like . nick : [ chuckles ] um ... yes , i , uh -- i have several female relatives who cover pretty much every age group . i also have a number of women working with me at dark horse , including my v.p . of p.r . , my personal attorney , and executive assistant . rebekah : quite an operation . not even in business for a year and already one of the top commercial real - estate firms in the nation . it 's impressive . nick : same to you . i mean , your cosmetics company is insane . you 've created an unbelievable company using a consistent brand message and cross - platform promotion . rebekah : i believe in my product and myself . nick : and that shows . rebekah : i appreciate you meeting me here tonight . hope i 'm not tearing you away from a girlfriend . nick : i 'm where i want to be . rebekah : [ breathes deeply ] i ca n't think of a better way to end an already amazing day . i found the perfect spokesperson for my brand , and if we make this jaboutique deal happen , it could be one of my most productive business trips . nick : rebekah , you will not regret getting involved with all the movers and shakers in genoa city . from music to fashion to real estate , this is the place of the future . rebekah : who would n't want a piece of that ? billy : hey . i 'll take a scotch , please . thank you . rebekah : after meeting with phyllis and billy abbott , i was n't sure hooking up with jabot was a good idea . but ... you 're a hard man to say no to . nick : well ... does that mean you are ready to close the deal ? rebekah : we 'll do it right now ... up in my suite . nick : lead the way . [ woman 1 ] this ... `` the young and the restless `` will continue . mariah : what if there 's nobody else out there for me ? what if , after i break up with tessa ... i never find anybody else who 'll love me ? kyle : that 's what you 're afraid of ? mariah : yeah . kyle : you 're crazy . mariah : wow . you really suck as a shrink . kyle : i 'm serious . why would n't someone love you ? you 're smart , funny -- hilarious , actually . beautiful , and you 're real . there are tons of people who would want to be with you . mariah : oh , totally . i 'm just ... beating them away with a stick . kyle : i thought you and tessa were great together . but you should n't stay with her because you 're afraid you wo n't find someone else . it 's a relationship that has zero chance of lasting . mariah : no , i know you 're right . i know if there 's no trust , then ... what else is left ? kyle : not much . mariah : i have to break up with tessa . kyle : do you want backup ? mariah : no . no . i have to do this on my own . sharon : how did i go from living my life to being caught up in this insanity ? nikki : well , girls ' night was your idea , remember ? sharon : i did n't know it was going to end in you killing j.t . nikki : well , it was n't on my agenda , either ! victoria : no point in arguing . we are where we are . sharon : where is that ? nikki : obviously , someone is taunting us by framing victor for j.t . 's murder . sharon : or maybe victor really did murder j.t . nikki : oh , yeah -- right after we killed him . sharon : after we thought we did . nikki : oh , please , sharon ! not your `` j.t . dug himself out of his own grave `` theory again ! god ! sharon : could be the reality . victoria : okay . let 's just say for one crazy moment that j.t . was able to dig himself out of all the dirt that we threw on top of him and then dad tracked him down and killed him . dad would never leave evidence behind for the police to find . that is even more unbelievable than a corpse digging himself out of a grave ! sharon : if j.t . was n't killed in the stables , then who planted the gun and the shirt ? nikki : victoria , you do n't think that ... victoria : what ? nikki : could jack have done this ? victoria : well , he certainly has motive -- a lifetime of hatred . it would have been easy enough for him to steal dad 's gun . but how would he get j.t . 's body ? sharon : oh , my god . i ca n't believe i did n't think of this until just now . it 's obvious who did this . victoria : who ? sharon : the person who should be here worrying about this as much as we are ! nikki : phyllis . billy : so , where 's nick ? phyllis : he 's at a dinner meeting . what is this urgent business that you needed to talk to me about ? billy : i 'm worried about rebekah . have you heard from her ? phyllis : not yet , but i am expecting to hear good news very soon . billy : well , i would n't wait too long for that . phyllis : why is that ? billy : 'cause i 'm pretty sure she 's not thinking about our proposal . i think she 's got other things on her mind . phyllis : such as ? billy : look , phyllis , this is n't easy to say , all right ? i saw rebekah at the club , and she was getting cozy with nick . that son of a bitch . you have n't lived here for a week , and he 's already cheating on you . phyllis : [ chuckles ] ohh . sharon : it would n't be the first time she 's tried to implicate him in j.t . 's death . she suggested that rey investigate him , remember ? victoria : yeah , because she claimed it was to point the police in the wrong direction . sharon : that 's what she said . phyllis hates victor . what better revenge than to see him pay for a crime that she was involved in ? that 's win - win for her . victoria : how could she pull it off ? sharon : maybe she went back to the park that night we buried him . she did n't trust me to keep the secret . she was covering her bases , so she dug up the body and moved it before jill had a chance to put that sculpture up . victoria : and did what with it ? sharon : hid it . nikki : where ? in summer 's apartment ? sharon : i do n't know . but j.t . had n't been dead that long . she might have been able to get blood out of him or keep it until she needed it later . nikki : well , i do n't know . i mean , it 's hard for me to believe phyllis would do anything that disgusting . sharon : really ? phyllis ? nikki : okay . so , let 's see here . she dug j.t . up and hid him god knows where and then ghoulishly removed blood from him and then took that blood and smeared it on his shirt and planted it and one of victor 's guns in the stables and then lit the whole thing on fire . sharon : do n't act like it 's impossible . nikki : j.t . digging his way out of his own grave is more plausible . victoria : mom 's right . listen , think about how difficult it was for the four of us to move the body . do you really think that phyllis could do it on her own ? sharon : well , maybe she had help . victoria : there is no way she would involve someone else in this . sharon : i would n't put anything past phyllis . victoria : you know what you 're doing ? you 're letting your hatred of phyllis cloud your judgment . she 's been in this with us from the beginning , and i think she still is . sharon : fine . if not phyllis , who ? nikki : i can think of only one person . victoria : and it 's time that we put a stop to this once and for all . ana : i wish you had told me you were struggling . devon : i just thought that how i was feeling was normal . ana : there 's that word again . devon : i suppose i was fooling myself . ana : the rest of us , too . i had no idea how much you were suffering . devon : you know when you go through something like i did with hilary ... from the accident to the surgery to the time in the hospital to the funeral , you have all these people around you , all these people trying to help you and try to lift you up and encourage you and get you through it . but when it 's all over , they go back to their lives , and you 're left alone to deal with the grief . i thought that i could handle it . i really thought i could . but then the walls just started closing in on me , and i felt like i could n't breathe , and i just -- i wanted it all to go away . ana : is that why you were drinking and partying so much ? devon : yeah . and it did n't help anything . it just -- i was n't able to sleep at all . i was n't able to focus on anything . and then i started pushing people away who cared about me the most . ana : like your annoying little sister . devon : mm - hmm . i knew that was n't gon na be easy . ana : try impossible . going to see a therapist , taking anti - anxiety meds -- that 's all great . but do n't think for a second i 'm going to back off . devon : do i look like a fool ? do n't answer that question . please don't . ana : [ chuckles softly ] rebekah : let the celebration begin . nick : how 'bout we get those contracts signed ? rebekah : oh . i do n't like to rush these things . nick : take as much time as you need . rebekah : i 'm glad you feel that way . nick : or , you know , you could , uh -- you could sign them and then just send them directly to phyllis at jabot if you 're sure this is what you want . rebekah : oh , i 'm sure this is what i want . i 've thought about it a lot . besides , i 'm flying out tonight . and i want to do this before i go . and you are the only one i trust to take care of this for me . besides , i would n't want to put something so important in the hands of a courier . nick : of course . rebekah : do n't you think a little celebration is the best way to end our evening ? nick : sure . rebekah : [ chuckles softly ] oh . nick : oh . whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . here . or , uh -- yeah . here you go . rebekah : uh , i 'll be right back . nick : yeah . phyllis : i 'd offer you a drink , but i get the feeling like you 've had enough . billy : i 'm sober as a judge -- at least most judges . phyllis : well , then maybe you need to get your vision checked , 'cause what you saw was nick having dinner with a business associate . billy : what business does nick have with rebekah barlow ? phyllis : he 's doing us a favor . billy : oh , really ? is that what he told you ? phyllis : i set it up . billy : come again ? phyllis : nick is using his business savvy and his charm to convince her that the locations of the jaboutiques are good for her brand . it 'll increase revenue . billy : right . so , him going up to her suite -- is that the savvy part or the charm part ? phyllis : i have no idea ... why you 'd feel the need to come over here and tell me what nick is up to unless you 're trying to make trouble for us . billy : i do n't want to see you get hurt ... again . phyllis : so , you came over here because you care about me ? billy : once a cheater , always a cheater , right ? phyllis : that go for the both of us ? billy : i did some crap things to you while we were together , but i never cheated on you . phyllis : that honor goes to me . billy : sleeping with summer in retaliation was not one of my finest moments . phyllis : you never should have used her . billy : no , i should n't have . and if i could take it back , i would . phyllis : is that an apology ? billy : would it make a difference ? phyllis : are you asking me for another chance ? billy : no . that 's not what i 'm saying . is that what you want ? phyllis : i 'm not even sure where you 're coming from . billy : neither am i. i 'm not sure . phyllis : well , good . maybe you should go . billy : yeah , i think i should . fact is , every insurance company hopes you drive safely . nick : rebekah , how 's it going in there ? ! rebekah : good ! i 'll be right out ! nick : i should be going soon ! rebekah : just one ... second . nick : [ chuckles nervously ] wh - what are you doing ? rebekah : celebrating . nick : yeah . uh ... rebekah , i , uh ... rebekah : you said you were gon na help me . nick : uh , yeah . i think you should sign those contracts . rebekah : oh , but that can wait . this can't . nick : [ chuckles nervously ] rey : mariah . hey . mariah : hey . rey : everything all right ? mariah : it 's been kind of a rough day . [ chuckles ] rey : same . mariah : is the , uh , j.t . hellstrom case still messing with you ? rey : every time i think i 'm close to solving it , it goes sideways . i ca n't trust what anybody tells me . mariah : yeah , i feel you . rey : i hope your night is better than your day . mariah : [ sighs ] i have a whole thing at home . tessa : [ gasps ] aah ! aah ! ohh !Summarize.[/INST]ana saves the meeting with rebbeca by giving devon a pill for his anxeity tht the doctor perscribed and setting up a video conference with the singer devon wants to be the spokewoman for her cosmetics line . rebecca decides to seal the deal with devon . devon thanks ana for her help and admits that he has had a rough time and he has felt lost and lonely after losing hilary . devon tells ana it did him good to talk to the doctor even tho ; ugh he is still hesitent about taking the anxiety pills he admits they helped him continue the meeting . nick goes on a date with rebecca to help phyllis and get rebecca to sign the contract with jabot . nick is more then a bit surprised when they go bacik to rebeca 's suite she spills champage on herself and then comes back from the bathroom with sexy lingerie on nick is uncomfortable and wants to leave so he tries to head for the door . rebecca makes it clear that she wants him and she wo n't sign the contracts until she gets him . the ladies night group minus phyllis try to figure out who planted the bloody shirt and the gun registed to victor in the stables they consider phyllis and jack but in the end decide it must be tessa and something must be done about her . mariah decides to break up with tessa after a long talk with kyle and she sends mariah a text telling her to meet her at crimson lights . tessa texts back saying she is on the way but as she heads out the door someone puts something over her face and is drags her away tessa drops her keys before she is dragged away hoping someone will find the clue .</s> | 18,724 |

[ laughs ] eric : yet he stopped it -- like , what , he crashed the wedding ? jennifer : no , it was more complicated than that . i mean , he set the place on fire ... eric : what ? jennifer : well , i mean , not really on fire . he somehow made it smoky and then walked in dressed like a fireman and oxygen mask on , threw me over his shoulder , and ... i 've never been kidnapped on a fire truck before , or since . eric : now that sounds like jack 's style . jennifer : yeah . too bad he 's not the same man anymore . eric : and why i know you 're the same woman . i know you can do this . jennifer : you 're joking . eric : no , i 'm serious . just -- just think about it , okay ? sarah : [ coughs ] rex : deep , deep breaths . honey , are you okay ? sarah : mm - hmm , deep breaths . rex : okay , i really admit . i sprung that whole , `` let 's get married today `` thing on you . sarah : kind of ...

! and you ca n't even say anything to kristina until we know the facts . michael : okay , i wo n't tell anybody , i swear . sonny : you swear ! michael : yes ! sonny : all right . [ breathes deeply ] after joe jr. raped kate , she found out she was pregnant . she thought the baby died . joe jr. comes to town a couple weeks ago , right ? i go to confront him . he warns me ... that kate 's son is still alive . michael : wait . you think trey is kate 's son ? trey : so , what -- i tell you about kate howard and you have nothing to say ? joe jr. : it was only a matter of time before you figured it out . trey : so it 's true . joe jr. : yes . kate howard -- connie falconeri ... is your mother . trey : then why -- why did n't you tell me , dad ? joe jr. : i was trying to protect you . that woman abandoned us when you were a baby . what makes you think now is any different ? trey : 'cause that 's not what kate said . joe jr. : so what did she say ? trey : she says you , her , and sonny all knew each other back in bensonhurst . she was sonny 's girlfriend , and -- joe jr. : yeah ? ! and what ? ! and what of the woman who abandoned you , never went looking for you , never spared you a thought ? ! trey : she said you forced yourself on her , dad ! she said you raped her ! joe jr. : that 's a damn lie ! trey : is it ? tracy : why is it every time i think i 'm out , they pull me back in ? monica : what exactly do you mean by `` they `` ? tracy : i thought that reference was absolutely clear . that 's gino soleito , anthony zacchara , and now joe scully jr. -- they 're all gangsters . why do n't they leave me alone ? monica : maybe they find a kindred spirit in you . tracy : i 'm moved by your empathy . monica : well , can you blame me , tracy ? i mean , you took up with joseph and you did n't even know his last name . tracy : the worst part was the smug look on his face . monica : what , joseph 's ? tracy : no . sonny 's . he came in here and saw joseph and immediately started calling him joe scully jr . monica : why is that name so familiar ? tracy : 10 years ago , his father -- that would be joe scully sr . -- started to make inroads in port charles . monica : oh ! yes . yes , i remember . um ... luke and lucy coe had something to do with it . there was a -- a shootout and ... sonny killed him , i guess . tracy : well , you know more about it than i do . i was in europe at the time . apparently , my joseph ... monica : `` your `` joseph ? tracy : .... followed in his father 's footsteps . he 's a gangster , a murderer , and -- oh -- did i mention rapist ? what are you waiting for ? that 's your cue . you 're supposed to say , `` i told you so . `` joe jr. : listen to me , son . i did n't rape anybody . kate -- no , connie , then -- asked me over one night . her parents were out . she came on to me . she went on about how sonny could n't give her the things that she liked . so we got together . it was completely mutual . and then when she came up pregnant , she never even bothered to tell me ! trey : so then why hide it if it happened the way you said ? joe jr. : she was ambitious . that girl had big plans to leave the neighborhood and go to college . she did n't want a kid slowing her down . so she rented a room in a boarding house , and she gave birth there , alone . yeah , that 's right . she could n't even be bothered to go to the hospital ! and the second you were born , joey , she left you , she high - tailed it out of there , and left you for dead ! trey : stop . joe jr. : no , as far as she was concerned , you were dead , joey ! trey : stop it , dad ! please , stop ! i know what happened ! joe jr. : i can see it on your face , joey . she -- you know she 's a liar . she 's the one who left you . she 's to blame , not me . connie : hey , hey . do n't you want to hear my problems , johnny ? johnny : do i have a choice ? connie : no . so , kate wants to marry sonny next week , right ? i mean , you 'd think the girl would learn the first time she got shot at the altar , that that would leave some sort of impression , but , no . she wants to go get married again . so here 's the thing -- that means i got to be married to sonny . and you know how i feel about that ? three words -- not gon na happen . epiphany : i do n't know how many times i caught robin and patrick in that supply closet . but they put that nonsense behind them once emma was born , more or less . sabrina : they had a daughter ? epiphany : mm - hmm . and i 'm sure you 'll meet her eventually . she 's a beautiful little girl . [ chuckles ] the apple of her daddy 's eye . they were such a sweet family . you know , robin adored her . but that did not mean that she neglected her duties here at the hospital . sabrina : so she was dedicated . epiphany : oh . the best . [ chuckles ] she was , uh ... doing the protocol for a patient in the lab when there was an accident . an explosion . now , robin , she did n't survive . sabrina : how awful . that poor woman . epiphany : yeah , so , uh , dr. drake and emma ... they 've been trying to put their lives back together since . patrick : i will get you my notes tomorrow . how 's that ? britt : thank you . i appreciate your input . patrick : of course , dr. westbourne . britt : oh , please . call me britt . patrick : okay . of course , britt . britt : any chance i could buy you dinner ? patrick : oh , that 's not necessary . britt : oh , i do n't mean as a thank you . i meant as dinner . patrick : uh , you mean ... as a date ? monica : i 'm not gon na say i told you so . tracy : really ? and pass up a golden opportunity ? monica : i thought you had a real connection with the man , and i 'm sorry it did n't work out . but the good news is , you found out the truth about joseph before it went too far . tracy : yeah , and you escaped having him move in to your house . monica : i am thinking about you , tracy , and the fact that you realized who he is before you developed real feelings for him . tracy : too late . joe jr. : you see why i had to keep it a secret all these years ? how could i tell my own son that his mother wanted him dead ? so i changed the details , i fudged the timing . i told you we were married . but no matter how you slice it , your mother left you , joey . she never even looked back . trey : okay . okay , dad . i get it . understand why -- why you might have lied to me when i was a little kid , but i 'm a grown man now . so when i agreed to help you get revenge on sonny , you knew he was dating kate howard -- my mother . why did n't you tell me then ? joe jr. : maybe it was n't the right thing to do , kiddo , but ... i love you . i could n't and i ca n't bear to see you hurt . anyway , now you understand why we have to get even with sonny . when he pays , so will she . trey : you want me to plot against my own mother ? joe jr. : that woman does n't deserve the title ! let me ask you something -- when she announced that she was your mother , how did kate act ? did she say she was sorry , beg for your forgiveness , throw her arms around her long - lost boy ? ! trey : she said she wished that i 'd died . johnny : so what 's your big plan ? you gon na take off before kate can walk down the aisle ? connie : what , you think i 'd cut and run ? johnny : hey , all right . so if you want to disappear , i 've had a lot of experience making people do just that over the years . connie : by tying someone to a concrete block and dropping it in the harbor ? no , thank you . johnny : no , i 'm out of the business , connie . and i do n't want you to die . i just want you to go away . so you tell me where you want to go . i 'll set you up . i 'll buy you the plane ticket . i 'll ... get you a bank account till you get on your feet . you name the destination , and i 'll send you there . what , rio ? amsterdam ? you can probably get a lot of good work in amsterdam . connie : no , no , you see , i tried that , and i did n't get further than the airport . johnny : well , you 'd have help this time . connie : yeah . do n't you get it ? sonny 's like a dog with a bone . he would chase me forever . and then what am i supposed to do when he finds me ? i ca n't pretend to be kate for the rest of my life . johnny : well , you do a reasonable imitation . connie : sooner or later , he 'd find out , and he would commit kate . and then i 'd be banished from this world , indefinitely . no , thank you . johnny : well , you 're right . does n't sound good . connie : no , it does n't . it 's not good for you , either , johnny . because the only reason why i exist is our little secret , you see ? so if i go to a shrink and he makes kate remember that she 's innocent , we 're both screwed . johnny : [ breathes deeply ] fine . you 're right -- you ca n't run , you ca n't pretend to be kate for the rest of your life , so ... where does that leave you , connie ? connie : well see . that 's where you come in ... hot shot . michael : trey could be kate 's son ? sonny : all the pieces fit . joe says that kate 's son is still alive . um ... he -- trey 's been manipulating kristina . finally getting her to marry him just at the same time that joe gets out of jail . michael : you think joe jr. set this whole thing up . sonny : well , i mean , look -- he might have been pulling strings from the beginning . forcing trey to use kristina so that way my own daughter can be used against me . michael : [ scoffs ] well , this is gon na wreck kristina . she actually believes in trey . she thinks he actually cares about her . sonny : okay . you can not tell your sister anything . this could all be speculation until we find out for sure that trey is joe jr. 's son . michael : starr could tell us . she saw trey and his father together . starr : so you actually do want something real with trey ? kristina : i thought it 'd be so simple -- we 'd just go to vegas and get a quickie wedding and then come home and get a quickie annulment , and everything would go back to the way it was , except for one important detail . trey would be grateful to me for helping his father , start to trust me ... care about me . starr : and that has n't happened ? kristina : i have n't even had time to find out . my parents are totally flipping . now you tell me that trey 's upset and wo n't even say why . and i 'm sure kate said something horrible to him , which is so unfair , and this whole thing -- starr : okay , kristina ... i have to tell you something , and it 's about trey 's father . [ cell phone rings ] starr : shoot . it 's your brother . hi , michael . michael : hey , starr , um ... look , i 'm at my dad 's . we need to talk to you about trey 's father . was wondering if you can come over . starr : right now ? michael : yeah , you 're the only person who saw trey 's dad , and , uh , we 're hoping that you can i.d . him for us . starr : i 'm with your sister . michael : oh , you 're with kristina ? um , starr , do n't tell her about this , okay ? starr : okay , yeah , you got it . bye . i have to ... meet up with michael . sorry . kristina : wait . you 're about to tell me something about trey 's father . starr : i know , but trey 's gon na be home any minute now , right ? so just wait for him . kristina : you 're not gon na tell me ? starr : kristina , this is something that you need to talk to trey about , not me . trey : she said she wanted to get an abortion , but then she talked to some priest , and he made her feel guilty . joe jr. : yeah , just when i thought that woman could n't sink any lower . you did n't need to hear that garbage . trey : that 's the reason that she left me at the boarding house -- because that was the only option she had to get rid of me . joe jr. : she said that ? those words ? trey : it 's kind of a blur , but , yeah . she ... she said she could n't stand the thought of me , that she wanted me dead . you know , dad , whenever you used to talk about my mother and how she left us ... part of me just thought that maybe you were being a little unfair ... that she could n't possibly be that bad . turns out , she 's actually worse . joe jr. : no , hey , hey , hey . [ chuckles ] just forget her . you know what ? you 're better off without her . trey : wait . wait . no , no , dad , i just realized something . kate 's sick , right ? joe jr. : you 're telling me , right ? trey : no , no , no , i mean , like , she 's sick . she 's got a mental illness -- d.i.d . or whatever it is . that 's the reason that they dropped the charges for her murdering starr 's family because ... 'cause kate did n't remember causing the accident . right ? it was her other personality . joe jr. : so what ? trey : so i 'm saying maybe that 's what happened today , dad . maybe the woman that wanted me dead , the woman that yelled at me ... maybe it was her other personality -- connie . joe jr. : no , do n't . do n't do it , trey . do n't make excuses for her . kate , connie , whatever you call her , she always had a way of working people , you know ? twisting things around to save her own ass . yeah . i 'll give her one thing -- that bitch is one hell of an actress . johnny : okay , so you do n't want to marry sonny . big freakin ' deal . what 's that got to do with me ? connie : just wait till i tell you . it 's gon na blow your mind . johnny : connie , in case you have n't noticed , i 'm recovering from a bullet wound . connie : yeah . johnny : and my painkillers are starting to wear off , and believe me when i say you 're tough enough to take without pharmaceutical assistance . so why do n't you get to your point ? connie : why do n't you shove over and i 'll tell you then ? [ grunts ] that 's a boy . ahh . johnny : okay . so what ? you want a repeat performance ? sonny walks in and finds us in bed together ? i 'm not gon na be that much use to you on life support . connie : shh . what i 've come up with is so much better than before . [ laughter ] britt : it 's true . i am asking you out . patrick : yeah , i , um ... i just do n't think -- britt : i realize we do n't know each other well , but i overheard someone mention that you were single . patrick : i am . i am , uh ... look , i have n't been on a date since ... since my wife died , so ... britt : oh . no one told me that part . i am so sorry . patrick : it 's okay . no , it 's fine , really , but ... uh , thank you for asking . i - i do appreciate that . britt : i 'll let you get back to your work . patrick : yeah . epiphany : normally , i try to keep a tight lid on the gossip around here , but you need to know that this man is still in mourning . sabrina : i just wish i could help . epiphany : i 'll bet you do . sabrina : no ! not like that . i mean , yes , he 's attractive . okay , he 's drop - dead gorgeous . that is -- i -- that 's a bad choice of words . my point is that i feel badly for dr. drake . epiphany : that was a nice try . but i can tell that you 're crushin ' on the man . sabrina : what ? no ! no , you -- no , you do n't have to worry . i would never crush on dr. drake . patrick : excuse me , um ... uh ... sabrina ? can i ask you a question ? sabrina : anything . monica : tracy , you 're not saying ... what are you saying ? tracy : what i 'm saying is , despite his unsavory affiliations , i find joseph to be attentive and considerate and ... hoo ! -- very sexy . he makes me feel good . monica : define `` good . `` tracy : well , it 's a lot better than the prison sentence of a marriage i had to anthony . i like the man 's company . monica : what happened to `` it 's over `` ? tracy : there are two sides to every story . and why would i take sonny corinthos ' word over joseph ? sonny corinthos is an inveterate thug . monica : that he is , but there is no reason for him to lie . and did n't you mention something about a rape charge ? tracy : oh , yeah . according to kate howard , the woman who shot out anthony 's tires and left two people dead . monica : she was suffering from d.i.d . she did n't commit the crimes . her alter did . tracy : and why did n't it ever occur to me to blame my transgressions on a second personality ? monica : because your personality is quite consistent , tracy . you are consistently unpleasant . kate was diagnosed with a mental illness . fortunately , she 's been treated , integrated , and the alter is gone . connie : so , what do you think ? johnny : no way . it 's never gon na happen . connie : not the reaction i was looking for . johnny : are you out of your mind ? connie : johnny , it 's a mutually beneficial agreement , okay ? i stay out of the nuthouse . you stay out of the big house . johnny : forget it . connie : do n't you be so hasty with me , johnny ! you think of the consequences if you do n't play ball with me ! trey : so you think kate 's other personality is just an act ? joe jr. : i 'll give her this much . it 's a creative way to get out of paying for the crap she pulled . but do n't let her fool you son . she left you for dead . best thing for you to do is just put her out of her mind . trey : i just found out she 's my mother . dad , how am i supposed to pretend that did n't happen ? joe jr. : kate howard , connie falconeri , she may have given birth to you , but that woman is not your mother , and she never will be ! the plan has n't changed . we 're still gon na take back what 's ours , what sonny stole from us . i need to know you 're with me , son . trey : how am i supposed to trust you after all these lies ? joe jr. : i protected you the best i could . i 'm only sorry that you had to find out this way . i 'm sorry that you 're hurting over this heartless bitch . trey : what does it matter , dad ? hmm ? as soon as sonny finds out , my marriage to kristina is over . we may need to go our separate ways for a while . do n't reach out to me . whatever you do , do n't sign any papers from sonny . so just refuse to get an annulment ? joe jr. : long as you 're married , we have room to maneuver . trey : `` maneuver . `` yeah , sonny is gon na be furious . joe jr. : oh . who cares ? he ca n't lift a hand against his daughter 's husband . if we play this smart ... you may be able to take back some -- hell , maybe even all -- of what sonny stole from us . sonny : is that him ? starr : yeah , that 's trey 's father . connie : let me tell you what happens if you do n't go with my little proposal . johnny : oh , what ? you suddenly remember you 're not the one who shot out anthony 's tires ? connie : bingo . because one word out of me , johnny , they will open up a whole new investigation , and then people will start putting two and two together , even the idiots at the pcpd -- that is , if todd manning does n't get to you first . johnny : todd manning . connie : yeah . oh , man , i can not wait to see the look on his face when i tell him that you are the one that ran his grandbaby off the road . you know , johnny , todd does n't seem like the kind of man that has much faith in police enforcement . i bet he 'd take a gun and shoot you himself . johnny : sorry to spoil your little revenge plan but todd already knows . connie : really ? and how are you still breathing ? johnny : turns out , i got something just as damning on him . connie : no kidding . johnny , you 're smarter than i thought . johnny : yeah , i have my good days . connie : yeah . okay . you know what ? i 'll just go straight to the cops , then . you know what i 'm gon na do ? i 'm gon na go to the grieving mother herself . you think your star attraction will be so forgiving of you ? face it -- you got to go with me , johnny , or you can kiss your freedom and probably your life goodbye . johnny : i ca n't do what you 're asking . connie : that 's the point -- i 'm not asking you . johnny : it 'll destroy my relationship with carly . connie : what does that have to do with me ? johnny : i 'm not doing it . and you think carly 's even gon na go for that ? do you think sonny 's gon na buy the whole thing ? connie : yes , johnny ! because we 're gon na convince them together ! okay ? come on , johnny . we make a good team . what , have you forgotten about that already ? monica : d.i.d . is a legitimate mental illness . tracy : making kate howard a legitimate witness . it 's just her other personality that 's a homicidal maniac . monica : she has been treated , tracy . tracy : well , bully for her , monica , but it still does n't mean i 'm gon na take her word over joseph 's . monica : oh , so you 're going to trust joseph , a.k.a . joe scully jr. , second- generation mobster ? tracy : i ca n't blame him for his father 's crimes . and besides , he and i have a very intense connection . monica : it 's just great sex . tracy : it 's just great sex ? well , clearly , you have n't had any in a long time or you would n't say that . monica : okay , we 're gon na be late for cook 's funeral . i 'll go get edward and alice . you put some lipstick on and forget about joseph . tracy : [ sighs ] starr : trey was lying to me . michael : which time ? starr : when he said that there was n't a connection between his dad and yours . michael : oh , there 's a connection . starr : and his dad was lying to me , too , right to my face when i asked him if he knew sonny . he said he had never met him . sonny : i know him . and he knows me .

what 's this unfinished business ? connie : is your brain really that fuzzy , johnny ? or did you forget that i took the rap for you killing starr 's daughter and her boyfriend ? johnny : i do n't forget . connie : oh , good . good . then we 're on the same page . because , um ... you owe me , johnny . and i 'm ready to collect . kristina : kate 's been harsh with trey before in the past , so why would it be a problem now ? starr : i honestly do n't know . trey would n't talk to me about anything . maybe he 'll talk to you . kristina : he is my husband . not that that means anything . i know you and michael think i 'm pretty stupid for marrying trey as a stunt for the show . starr : look , michael just does n't want you to get hurt , okay ? kristina : yeah , well , he could show his concern a little bit better than by punching out my new husband in the wedding chapel . starr : you do n't think trey provoked michael ? kristina : maybe ! but it 's my life . i do n't need michael telling me what to do . trey needed that wedding for his father . i wanted to help him . i really do care about trey . joe jr. : tracy , it 's joseph . look , i know you 're not happy about what sonny told you , but you need to hear my side of the story . please , tracy , call me . tracy : get a grip . monica : oh , i know . i 've been teary all morning . tracy : what ? monica : but i think we better leave the tears here , because there 's gon na be a lot of press at cook 's funeral . i mean , after all , she was one of the first to fall victim to jerry jacks ' pathogen . tracy : i 'm not crying for cook . i will miss her , however . i loved what that woman did with a dover sole . monica : oh . i [ sniffles ] am gon na really miss her canapés . tracy : well , i must admit , i 'm happy to be back in our own kitchen . monica : my own kitchen . well , if the tears were n't for cook , then what 's going on ? tracy : if you must know ... i was thinking about joseph . it 's over . monica : did your antiques dealer take a closer look and find too many cracks in your veneer ? tracy : joseph and i are through . i found out who he really is . joe jr. : who upset you , son ? was it that bastard corinthos ? trey : listened to everything you said , dad . went to get sonny on my side , except sonny was n't there . kate was . we got into it , little bit about me and kristina getting married , a - and ... she was n't exactly sweet , but i could handle it . till she saw my medal . joe jr. : your medal . trey : i think you know what happened next . joe jr. : why do n't you tell me ? trey : kate howard told me she 's my mother . sonny : joe jr. raped kate when she was a teenager . he killed the ... that cop mcbain 's sister . he was extradited to ... atlantic city . he was supposed to stand trial . charges were dropped . michael : wait . they let this guy out of jail ? sonny : same thing that you said happened with trey 's father , right ? michael : yeah , right . starr said that trey 's dad was released from prison . sonny : oh , my god . britt : patrick . i was hoping to run into you . i need a consult . patrick : sure . uh , yeah . we can go right in here . sabrina : so , what else can you tell me about dr. drake ? it 'll help me remember his name . epiphany : i 'm not sure what you want to know . sabrina : well , uh , he seems nice , but ... sort of sad ? epiphany : well , there 's a reason for that . sabrina : what do you mean ? what happened ? epiphany : [ sighs ] okay . you 're bound to find out sooner or later ... because it happened right here in the hospital . sabrina : what ? epiphany : his wife died . johnny : i do n't know what you 're after here , but if you think you 're gon na start shooting your mouth off -- connie : you mean telling the truth ? johnny : that 's not a good idea for anybody . connie : right . but mostly for you , right ? because you 'd go to prison , carly would kick you to the curb . that is , if todd manning does n't kill you first . johnny : there 's more to it than that . connie : i 'm sure . but you know what , johnny ? i really do n't want to hear your sob story right now , okay ? i got problems of my own . sonny : i thought he was bluffing ... looking for a way to stall me . michael : who ? trey 's dad ? bluffing about what ? sonny : do n't worry about it . i do n't want you -- do n't -- do n't even -- i do n't even want you to get into this right now . michael : dad , starr lives with trey . kristina 's married to him . sonny : i do n't want you involved . michael : i already am involved , dad ! i knew trey was up to something the day i met him ! i went to vegas to stop kristina from marrying him ! sonny : you ca n't -- michael : just tell me what 's going on ! sonny : you got to keep this to yourself ! understand ? ! and you ca n't even say anything to kristina until we know the facts . michael : okay , i wo n't tell anybody , i swear . sonny : you swear ! michael : yes ! sonny : all right . [ breathes deeply ] after joe jr. raped kate , she found out she was pregnant . she thought the baby died . joe jr. comes to town a couple weeks ago , right ? i go to confront him . he warns me ... that kate 's son is still alive . michael : wait . you think trey is kate 's son ? trey : so , what -- i tell you about kate howard and you have nothing to say ? joe jr. : it was only a matter of time before you figured it out . trey : so it 's true . joe jr. : yes . kate howard -- connie falconeri ... is your mother . trey : then why -- why did n't you tell me , dad ? joe jr. : i was trying to protect you . that woman abandoned us when you were a baby . what makes you think now is any different ? trey : 'cause that 's not what kate said . joe jr. : so what did she say ? trey : she says you , her , and sonny all knew each other back in bensonhurst . she was sonny 's girlfriend , and -- joe jr. : yeah ? ! and what ? ! and what of the woman who abandoned you , never went looking for you , never spared you a thought ? ! trey : she said you forced yourself on her , dad ! she said you raped her ! joe jr. : that 's a damn lie ! trey : is it ? tracy : why is it every time i think i 'm out , they pull me back in ? monica : what exactly do you mean by `` they `` ? tracy : i thought that reference was absolutely clear . that 's gino soleito , anthony zacchara , and now joe scully jr. -- they 're all gangsters . why do n't they leave me alone ? monica : maybe they find a kindred spirit in you . tracy : i 'm moved by your empathy . monica : well , can you blame me , tracy ? i mean , you took up with joseph and you did n't even know his last name . tracy : the worst part was the smug look on his face . monica : what , joseph 's ? tracy : no . sonny 's . he came in here and saw joseph and immediately started calling him joe scully jr . monica : why is that name so familiar ? tracy : 10 years ago , his father -- that would be joe scully sr . -- started to make inroads in port charles . monica : oh ! yes . yes , i remember . um ... luke and lucy coe had something to do with it . there was a -- a shootout and ... sonny killed him , i guess . tracy : well , you know more about it than i do . i was in europe at the time . apparently , my joseph ... monica : `` your `` joseph ? tracy : .... followed in his father 's footsteps . he 's a gangster , a murderer , and -- oh -- did i mention rapist ? what are you waiting for ? that 's your cue . you 're supposed to say , `` i told you so . `` joe jr. : listen to me , son . i did n't rape anybody . kate -- no , connie , then -- asked me over one night . her parents were out . she came on to me . she went on about how sonny could n't give her the things that she liked . so we got together . it was completely mutual . and then when she came up pregnant , she never even bothered to tell me ! trey : so then why hide it if it happened the way you said ? joe jr. : she was ambitious . that girl had big plans to leave the neighborhood and go to college . she did n't want a kid slowing her down . so she rented a room in a boarding house , and she gave birth there , alone . yeah , that 's right . she could n't even be bothered to go to the hospital ! and the second you were born , joey , she left you , she high - tailed it out of there , and left you for dead ! trey : stop . joe jr. : no , as far as she was concerned , you were dead , joey ! trey : stop it , dad ! please , stop ! i know what happened ! joe jr. : i can see it on your face , joey . she -- you know she 's a liar . she 's the one who left you . she 's to blame , not me . connie : hey , hey . do n't you want to hear my problems , johnny ? johnny : do i have a choice ? connie : no . so , kate wants to marry sonny next week , right ? i mean , you 'd think the girl would learn the first time she got shot at the altar , that that would leave some sort of impression , but , no . she wants to go get married again . so here 's the thing -- that means i got to be married to sonny . and you know how i feel about that ? three words -- not gon na happen . epiphany : i do n't know how many times i caught robin and patrick in that supply closet . but they put that nonsense behind them once emma was born , more or less . sabrina : they had a daughter ? epiphany : mm - hmm . and i 'm sure you 'll meet her eventually . she 's a beautiful little girl . [ chuckles ] the apple of her daddy 's eye . they were such a sweet family . you know , robin adored her . but that did not mean that she neglected her duties here at the hospital . sabrina : so she was dedicated . epiphany : oh . the best . [ chuckles ] she was , uh ... doing the protocol for a patient in the lab when there was an accident . an explosion . now , robin , she did n't survive . sabrina : how awful . that poor woman . epiphany : yeah , so , uh , dr. drake and emma ... they 've been trying to put their lives back together since . patrick : i will get you my notes tomorrow . how 's that ? britt : thank you . i appreciate your input . patrick : of course , dr. westbourne . britt : oh , please . call me britt . patrick : okay . of course , britt . britt : any chance i could buy you dinner ? patrick : oh , that 's not necessary . britt : oh , i do n't mean as a thank you . i meant as dinner . patrick : uh , you mean ... as a date ? monica : i 'm not gon na say i told you so . tracy : really ? and pass up a golden opportunity ? monica : i thought you had a real connection with the man , and i 'm sorry it did n't work out . but the good news is , you found out the truth about joseph before it went too far . tracy : yeah , and you escaped having him move in to your house . monica : i am thinking about you , tracy , and the fact that you realized who he is before you developed real feelings for him . tracy : too late . joe jr. : you see why i had to keep it a secret all these years ? how could i tell my own son that his mother wanted him dead ? so i changed the details , i fudged the timing . i told you we were married . but no matter how you slice it , your mother left you , joey . she never even looked back . trey : okay . okay , dad . i get it . understand why -- why you might have lied to me when i was a little kid , but i 'm a grown man now . so when i agreed to help you get revenge on sonny , you knew he was dating kate howard -- my mother . why did n't you tell me then ? joe jr. : maybe it was n't the right thing to do , kiddo , but ... i love you . i could n't and i ca n't bear to see you hurt . anyway , now you understand why we have to get even with sonny . when he pays , so will she . trey : you want me to plot against my own mother ? joe jr. : that woman does n't deserve the title ! let me ask you something -- when she announced that she was your mother , how did kate act ? did she say she was sorry , beg for your forgiveness , throw her arms around her long - lost boy ? ! trey : she said she wished that i 'd died . johnny : so what 's your big plan ? you gon na take off before kate can walk down the aisle ? connie : what , you think i 'd cut and run ? johnny : hey , all right . so if you want to disappear , i 've had a lot of experience making people do just that over the years . connie : by tying someone to a concrete block and dropping it in the harbor ? no , thank you . johnny : no , i 'm out of the business , connie . and i do n't want you to die . i just want you to go away . so you tell me where you want to go . i 'll set you up . i 'll buy you the plane ticket . i 'll ... get you a bank account till you get on your feet . you name the destination , and i 'll send you there . what , rio ? amsterdam ? you can probably get a lot of good work in amsterdam . connie : no , no , you see , i tried that , and i did n't get further than the airport . johnny : well , you 'd have help this time . connie : yeah . do n't you get it ? sonny 's like a dog with a bone . he would chase me forever . and then what am i supposed to do when he finds me ? i ca n't pretend to be kate for the rest of my life . johnny : well , you do a reasonable imitation . connie : sooner or later , he 'd find out , and he would commit kate . and then i 'd be banished from this world , indefinitely . no , thank you . johnny : well , you 're right . does n't sound good . connie : no , it does n't . it 's not good for you , either , johnny . because the only reason why i exist is our little secret , you see ? so if i go to a shrink and he makes kate remember that she 's innocent , we 're both screwed . johnny : [ breathes deeply ] fine . you 're right -- you ca n't run , you ca n't pretend to be kate for the rest of your life , so ... where does that leave you , connie ? connie : well see . that 's where you come in ... hot shot . michael : trey could be kate 's son ? sonny : all the pieces fit . joe says that kate 's son is still alive . um ... he -- trey 's been manipulating kristina . finally getting her to marry him just at the same time that joe gets out of jail . michael : you think joe jr. set this whole thing up . sonny : well , i mean , look -- he might have been pulling strings from the beginning . forcing trey to use kristina so that way my own daughter can be used against me . michael : [ scoffs ] well , this is gon na wreck kristina . she actually believes in trey . she thinks he actually cares about her . sonny : okay . you can not tell your sister anything . this could all be speculation until we find out for sure that trey is joe jr. 's son . michael : starr could tell us . she saw trey and his father together . starr : so you actually do want something real with trey ? kristina : i thought it 'd be so simple -- we 'd just go to vegas and get a quickie wedding and then come home and get a quickie annulment , and everything would go back to the way it was , except for one important detail . trey would be grateful to me for helping his father , start to trust me ... care about me . starr : and that has n't happened ? kristina : i have n't even had time to find out . my parents are totally flipping . now you tell me that trey 's upset and wo n't even say why . and i 'm sure kate said something horrible to him , which is so unfair , and this whole thing -- starr : okay , kristina ... i have to tell you something , and it 's about trey 's father . [ cell phone rings ] starr : shoot . it 's your brother . hi , michael . michael : hey , starr , um ... look , i 'm at my dad 's . we need to talk to you about trey 's father . was wondering if you can come over . starr : right now ? michael : yeah , you 're the only person who saw trey 's dad , and , uh , we 're hoping that you can i.d . him for us . starr : i 'm with your sister . michael : oh , you 're with kristina ? um , starr , do n't tell her about this , okay ? starr : okay , yeah , you got it . bye . i have to ... meet up with michael . sorry . kristina : wait . you 're about to tell me something about trey 's father . starr : i know , but trey 's gon na be home any minute now , right ? so just wait for him . kristina : you 're not gon na tell me ? starr : kristina , this is something that you need to talk to trey about , not me . trey : she said she wanted to get an abortion , but then she talked to some priest , and he made her feel guilty . joe jr. : yeah , just when i thought that woman could n't sink any lower . you did n't need to hear that garbage . trey : that 's the reason that she left me at the boarding house -- because that was the only option she had to get rid of me . joe jr. : she said that ? those words ? trey : it 's kind of a blur , but , yeah . she ... she said she could n't stand the thought of me , that she wanted me dead . you know , dad , whenever you used to talk about my mother and how she left us ... part of me just thought that maybe you were being a little unfair ... that she could n't possibly be that bad . turns out , she 's actually worse . joe jr. : no , hey , hey , hey . [ chuckles ] just forget her . you know what ? you 're better off without her . trey : wait . wait . no , no , dad , i just realized something . kate 's sick , right ? joe jr. : you 're telling me , right ? trey : no , no , no , i mean , like , she 's sick . she 's got a mental illness -- d.i.d . or whatever it is . that 's the reason that they dropped the charges for her murdering starr 's family because ... 'cause kate did n't remember causing the accident . right ? it was her other personality . joe jr. : so what ? trey : so i 'm saying maybe that 's what happened today , dad . maybe the woman that wanted me dead , the woman that yelled at me ... maybe it was her other personality -- connie . joe jr. : no , do n't . do n't do it , trey . do n't make excuses for her . kate , connie , whatever you call her , she always had a way of working people , you know ? twisting things around to save her own ass . yeah . i 'll give her one thing -- that bitch is one hell of an actress . johnny : okay , so you do n't want to marry sonny . big freakin ' deal . what 's that got to do with me ? connie : just wait till i tell you . it 's gon na blow your mind . johnny : connie , in case you have n't noticed , i 'm recovering from a bullet wound . connie : yeah . johnny : and my painkillers are starting to wear off , and believe me when i say you 're tough enough to take without pharmaceutical assistance . so why do n't you get to your point ? connie : why do n't you shove over and i 'll tell you then ? [ grunts ] that 's a boy . ahh . johnny : okay . so what ? you want a repeat performance ? sonny walks in and finds us in bed together ? i 'm not gon na be that much use to you on life support . connie : shh . what i 've come up with is so much better than before . [ laughter ] britt : it 's true . i am asking you out . patrick : yeah , i , um ... i just do n't think -- britt : i realize we do n't know each other well , but i overheard someone mention that you were single . patrick : i am . i am , uh ... look , i have n't been on a date since ... since my wife died , so ... britt : oh . no one told me that part . i am so sorry . patrick : it 's okay . no , it 's fine , really , but ... uh , thank you for asking . i - i do appreciate that . britt : i 'll let you get back to your work . patrick : yeah . epiphany : normally , i try to keep a tight lid on the gossip around here , but you need to know that this man is still in mourning . sabrina : i just wish i could help . epiphany : i 'll bet you do . sabrina : no ! not like that . i mean , yes , he 's attractive . okay , he 's drop - dead gorgeous . that is -- i -- that 's a bad choice of words . my point is that i feel badly for dr. drake . epiphany : that was a nice try . but i can tell that you 're crushin ' on the man . sabrina : what ? no ! no , you -- no , you do n't have to worry . i would never crush on dr. drake . patrick : excuse me , um ... uh ... sabrina ? can i ask you a question ? sabrina : anything . monica : tracy , you 're not saying ... what are you saying ? tracy : what i 'm saying is , despite his unsavory affiliations , i find joseph to be attentive and considerate and ... hoo ! -- very sexy . he makes me feel good . monica : define `` good . `` tracy : well , it 's a lot better than the prison sentence of a marriage i had to anthony . i like the man 's company . monica : what happened to `` it 's over `` ? tracy : there are two sides to every story . and why would i take sonny corinthos ' word over joseph ? sonny corinthos is an inveterate thug . monica : that he is , but there is no reason for him to lie . and did n't you mention something about a rape charge ? tracy : oh , yeah . according to kate howard , the woman who shot out anthony 's tires and left two people dead . monica : she was suffering from d.i.d . she did n't commit the crimes . her alter did . tracy : and why did n't it ever occur to me to blame my transgressions on a second personality ? monica : because your personality is quite consistent , tracy . you are consistently unpleasant . kate was diagnosed with a mental illness . fortunately , she 's been treated , integrated , and the alter is gone . connie : so , what do you think ? johnny : no way . it 's never gon na happen . connie : not the reaction i was looking for . johnny : are you out of your mind ? connie : johnny , it 's a mutually beneficial agreement , okay ? i stay out of the nuthouse . you stay out of the big house . johnny : forget it . connie : do n't you be so hasty with me , johnny ! you think of the consequences if you do n't play ball with me ! trey : so you think kate 's other personality is just an act ? joe jr. : i 'll give her this much . it 's a creative way to get out of paying for the crap she pulled . but do n't let her fool you son . she left you for dead . best thing for you to do is just put her out of her mind . trey : i just found out she 's my mother . dad , how am i supposed to pretend that did n't happen ? joe jr. : kate howard , connie falconeri , she may have given birth to you , but that woman is not your mother , and she never will be ! the plan has n't changed . we 're still gon na take back what 's ours , what sonny stole from us . i need to know you 're with me , son . trey : how am i supposed to trust you after all these lies ? joe jr. : i protected you the best i could . i 'm only sorry that you had to find out this way . i 'm sorry that you 're hurting over this heartless bitch . trey : what does it matter , dad ? hmm ? as soon as sonny finds out , my marriage to kristina is over . we may need to go our separate ways for a while . do n't reach out to me . whatever you do , do n't sign any papers from sonny . so just refuse to get an annulment ? joe jr. : long as you 're married , we have room to maneuver . trey : `` maneuver . `` yeah , sonny is gon na be furious . joe jr. : oh . who cares ? he ca n't lift a hand against his daughter 's husband . if we play this smart ... you may be able to take back some -- hell , maybe even all -- of what sonny stole from us . sonny : is that him ? starr : yeah , that 's trey 's father . connie : let me tell you what happens if you do n't go with my little proposal . johnny : oh , what ? you suddenly remember you 're not the one who shot out anthony 's tires ? connie : bingo . because one word out of me , johnny , they will open up a whole new investigation , and then people will start putting two and two together , even the idiots at the pcpd -- that is , if todd manning does n't get to you first . johnny : todd manning . connie : yeah . oh , man , i can not wait to see the look on his face when i tell him that you are the one that ran his grandbaby off the road . you know , johnny , todd does n't seem like the kind of man that has much faith in police enforcement . i bet he 'd take a gun and shoot you himself . johnny : sorry to spoil your little revenge plan but todd already knows . connie : really ? and how are you still breathing ? johnny : turns out , i got something just as damning on him . connie : no kidding . johnny , you 're smarter than i thought . johnny : yeah , i have my good days . connie : yeah . okay . you know what ? i 'll just go straight to the cops , then . you know what i 'm gon na do ? i 'm gon na go to the grieving mother herself . you think your star attraction will be so forgiving of you ? face it -- you got to go with me , johnny , or you can kiss your freedom and probably your life goodbye . johnny : i ca n't do what you 're asking . connie : that 's the point -- i 'm not asking you . johnny : it 'll destroy my relationship with carly . connie : what does that have to do with me ? johnny : i 'm not doing it . and you think carly 's even gon na go for that ? do you think sonny 's gon na buy the whole thing ? connie : yes , johnny ! because we 're gon na convince them together ! okay ? come on , johnny . we make a good team . what , have you forgotten about that already ? monica : d.i.d . is a legitimate mental illness . tracy : making kate howard a legitimate witness . it 's just her other personality that 's a homicidal maniac . monica : she has been treated , tracy . tracy : well , bully for her , monica , but it still does n't mean i 'm gon na take her word over joseph 's . monica : oh , so you 're going to trust joseph , a.k.a . joe scully jr. , second- generation mobster ? tracy : i ca n't blame him for his father 's crimes . and besides , he and i have a very intense connection . monica : it 's just great sex . tracy : it 's just great sex ? well , clearly , you have n't had any in a long time or you would n't say that . monica : okay , we 're gon na be late for cook 's funeral . i 'll go get edward and alice . you put some lipstick on and forget about joseph . tracy : [ sighs ] starr : trey was lying to me . michael : which time ?

phyllis : the wedding . jack : uh - huh . what about it ? phyllis : has devon not explained this to you ? jack : i mean , i thought it was strange that they 're getting married before she 's even out of the hospital , but i just chalk that up to him being a hopeless romantic . after the accident , he did n't want another minute to pass without him proving his love for her , that ... that they 'd just have the ceremony again once she got out . phyllis . there 's something more to this , is n't there ?

how ? phyllis : it 's hilary . she has a knack for reading people . she could tell i was holding something in . devon 's protecting her , and she 's protecting him . she does n't want the wedding to maudlin . so she 's carrying on as if she will fully recover . jack : why am i not surprised to know hilary wants to handle things that way ?

but she knows about crystal . the whole situation . she would never -- tessa : crystal is still a fugitive . you 'll be taking a huge risk joining me and putting anyone you tell in a terrible position , asking them not to reveal what they know to the police . mariah : then i guess there 's only one way to do this . i just got to leave . without saying anything . just avoid the questions . tessa : are you sure ? mariah : it 's gon na be hard , lying to everybody on top of walking out of the door in the first place . wow . okay , um ... all right , after the wedding , i 'm gon na go home and i 'll pack up my stuff . i 'll see sharon for one last time , and then ... goodbye , genoa city . shauna : i 'm worried about hilary . charlie : she 'll be okay . shauna : it 's not just that she was hurt . i 'm keeping this huge secret from her , and everybody else , acting like i had no idea your mom ran that red light . charlie : i wish my mom knew you 're looking out for her . i love you for that . for helping me and her . look . someday soon , hilary will come home and things will get better . shauna : i hope so . hilary : hey . nate : sorry , i did n't mean to wake you . i just want to do a quick check - in . i 'll let you get some rest . hilary : nate . nate : yeah ?

phyllis : the wedding . jack : uh - huh . what about it ? phyllis : has devon not explained this to you ? jack : i mean , i thought it was strange that they 're getting married before she 's even out of the hospital , but i just chalk that up to him being a hopeless romantic . after the accident , he did n't want another minute to pass without him proving his love for her , that ... that they 'd just have the ceremony again once she got out . phyllis . there 's something more to this , is n't there ? is devon doing this because her situation has worsened ? is time running out ? mariah : hey . i came as soon as i got your text . i do n't have much time before i have to go to the hospital . tessa : i am sorry for making your day more intense , but this ca n't wait . i just heard from kimberly . mariah : the woman who checked out crystal ?

how ? phyllis : it 's hilary . she has a knack for reading people . she could tell i was holding something in . devon 's protecting her , and she 's protecting him . she does n't want the wedding to maudlin . so she 's carrying on as if she will fully recover . jack : why am i not surprised to know hilary wants to handle things that way ? phyllis : you 're not gon na say anything to devon ? jack : no , i -- i 'll do it for hilary . i -- the whole thing makes me sick . it was n't enough they lost the baby ? she had a whole life ahead of her . she built this amazing career . she finally found her way back to the man she was supposed to be with , and now it 's all snatched from her . god , it 's just awful what they 're facing . phyllis : i know . just seeing them get slammed like this , it makes you take stock in your own life . jack : yeah , i 've been doing a bit of that lately , after i learned about my paternity . here 's another lesson -- never take for granted the people that you love . texting billy ? phyllis : i need to see him today , and he should be at this wedding . jack : i hope he 's there . if he 's not , i will be there for you . phyllis : we 'll be there for each other . jack : [ sighs ] mariah : i just thought that i would have maybe a couple more weeks to work up to this . and my job -- i mean , hilary is getting better , but she 's not gon na be able to go into work tomorrow . i thought i would have more time . tessa : if there was a way to change it , i would . but this might be the last chance to get to my sister . if i lose track of crystal , she could disappear , and i 'll never see her again . i have to leave town today , no matter what . mariah : i know . i get it . tessa : i still want you to come with me , but i 'll understand if you can't . mariah : i meant it when i said that i wanted to be with you . tessa : i know , but ... mariah : i do n't want to lose you . tessa : there 's no other way . mariah : well , then i guess i 'm going with you . tessa : what ? how ? mariah : i do n't know , i 'll figure it out , but you 're important to me . tessa : but ... your whole life is here , and leaving so suddenly ... mariah : it 's gon na be okay . tessa : you do n't have to pretend that this does n't hurt . i -- god , i hate that i 'm asking this of you . mariah : tessa . i 've got one shot at being with you . i 'm not gon na throw it away . so i better get started . tessa : wait . one more thing . do n't tell anyone why you 're leaving . mariah : wait , even sharon ? but she knows about crystal . the whole situation . she would never -- tessa : crystal is still a fugitive . you 'll be taking a huge risk joining me and putting anyone you tell in a terrible position , asking them not to reveal what they know to the police . mariah : then i guess there 's only one way to do this . i just got to leave . without saying anything . just avoid the questions . tessa : are you sure ? mariah : it 's gon na be hard , lying to everybody on top of walking out of the door in the first place . wow . okay , um ... all right , after the wedding , i 'm gon na go home and i 'll pack up my stuff . i 'll see sharon for one last time , and then ... goodbye , genoa city . shauna : i 'm worried about hilary . charlie : she 'll be okay . shauna : it 's not just that she was hurt . i 'm keeping this huge secret from her , and everybody else , acting like i had no idea your mom ran that red light . charlie : i wish my mom knew you 're looking out for her . i love you for that . for helping me and her . look . someday soon , hilary will come home and things will get better . shauna : i hope so . hilary : hey . nate : sorry , i did n't mean to wake you . i just want to do a quick check - in . i 'll let you get some rest . hilary : nate . nate : yeah ? hilary : thank you . nate : you should n't be thanking me . my job is to save lives , and i could n't even -- nate : hey , hey , hey . nate . look at me . i am smiling because today is my wedding day . and the only reason that i 'm around for that is because of you . nate : yeah . hilary : had you not scrubbed in for my surgery ... i would n't be marrying the man of my dreams today . neil : hey . did n't meant to interrupt you ... nate : no , no . it 's , um ... we 're all good .

[ sighs ] kristen : surprised ? so was i . especially when i learned how deep your connection with sami is . and the lengths that you 've gone to to win her affection . ej : i see father 's been keeping you very well informed . kristen : i would never judge you , who you give your heart to , believe me . ej : that is exceedingly fair of you . kristen : but , you know , the sami that i knew , back in the day , she was a piece of work . she kidnapped her own sister . now that was a real showstopper . ej : i do n't think we need to dredge up the past , do you ? kristen : as i said , i would never judge you . the heart wants what the heart wants . ej : may i quote you on that ? kristen : you may . and i just wish that people had been as understanding of me then as i 'm being of you now . ej : i see . this is -- this is you being understanding , is it ? kristen : you know what ? i 'm just stating the facts , ej . and the most pertinent fact is that sami ... what an interesting choice . ej : well , that 's a very insightful observation . but , uh , if you do n't mind ... kristen : i 'm just wondering what you have planned , now that you have him right where you want him . ej : i have no idea what you 're talking about . kristen : do i really have to spell it out for you , ej ? okay . i , uh -- i left here . i did a little investigating , after we spoke about you losing your child . ej : you mean you were sticking your nose in where it does n't belong . kristen : i found out that you changed the name of the father on the birth certificate . and the name that you removed was rafael hernandez . now that 's a man that both you and father have hated for a very long time . i do n't need all the details to connect the dots . it seems to me that you 've discovered that a fine , upstanding member of the community has committed a blatant act of fraud . for the sole purpose of protecting your ex - wife . and claiming your son as his own . i 'm gon na ask you again , ej . now that you have samantha 's ex - husband exactly where you want him ... what are you gon na do about it ? gabi : i could barely believe when i heard what had happened . i 'm so sorry , rafe . rafe : gabi , listen . gabi : no , listen to me . i know you 're not okay . you just lost a baby , rafe . rafe : which is not what i was gon na say . okay ? i tried calling you . it 's not something i wanted to leave a message on your phone -- gabi : i totally understand . trust me , i understand . sami : i think you should let him finish . gabi : excuse me ? sami : yeah , i think , um , rafe has something really important to tell you about what happened . gabi : what -- what is she talking about ? sami : she 's talking about the way that this tragedy ends . i already know the punch line here . and , um , well , when you find out , you probably wo n't feel quite so sorry for rafe . excuse me . rafe : sami . sami , please . would you just listen to me for a second ? bo : ma . listen , we 're sorry . did n't mean to upset you . caroline : well , it 's a sorry situation all around , is n't it ? i mean , when your own son does n't think anything of humiliating you . hope : oh , my gosh . caroline , the last thing we 'd ever want is for you to feel humiliated . which is why we 'd look for someone who 's discreet . you know , someone that , uh , people would just naturally assume was another employee here . caroline : i would know . bo : but would n't you feel reassured knowing that if you needed some help , someone was here ? caroline : well , i mean , this is bound to be pretty expensive , you know ? hope : do n't worry about that , right now . that is not what is important here . caroline : i 'm not going to be cavalier about my life savings ! and i 'm not gon na waste money on something frivolous ! bo : this is n't frivolous , ma , if it helps you hold onto your freedom . caroline : how am i gon na be free if someone is hovering around me , watching me every minute ? bo : there will be no hovering . they 'll only be here if you need 'em . that 's it . and it 'll also give me , your family , some assurance that it 's okay not to be here ... taking up tables for paying customers . so what do you say ? can we give it a try ? chad : ca n't believe i let him get to me . again . abigail : hey , it 's totally understandable . chad : no , no , it is n't . i mean , i should n't even care this much . abigail : but you do . chad , he 's your dad . chad : well , when he died -- i mean when we all ... thought he died , i guess i just got -- these -- these feelings came up for him . abigail : oh , no . feelings . it 's not a bad thing to have feelings for your father . chad : no , it 's not a bad thing . it 's a cruel joke , okay ? the one that i love is gone , while the one who drives me crazy is still here ? sorry . i should shut up . abigail : no . chad : you -- you 're still dealing with losing your father . and you should n't have to hear me complain about mine . abigail : it 's okay . i get it . i mean , my dad drove me crazy too . just in a different way . chad : yeah . abigail : god , i would give anything to have him back . especially right now , with everything that my mom 's going through . chad : it 's awful . abigail : yeah . chad : i mean , your mom , she 's a great person . and i hate that this is happening to her and to you . abigail : i just wish that my brother lived closer , you know ? you 're lucky that yours does . it helps , right ? that you still have your brother ? chad : [ scoffs ] yeah . still have ej . ej : my plan is to mourn the death of my son . kristen : the son that rafe hernandez conspired to keep from you ? you do n't want to make him pay for that ? ej : my little boy is gone . and he was gone before he took his first breath . so i do n't see what 's to be gained by being vindictive . kristen : maybe the more important question is ... what 's to be gained by not being vindictive ? smart ! that is so smart , ej . ej : i do n't know what you 're talking about . kristen : well , if you could play the role of the grieving father who 's big enough to be magnanimous in the face of his loss , sami is going to be so impressed by that . you see ? hello . i understand you . we are cut from the same dimera cloth , clearly . ej : i would n't say that , if i were you . kristen : well , it 's the truth . you are so much like father . whether you like it or not . now this urge -- this urge to make rafe pay for what he 's done , must be overwhelming . for you to put that aside , that tells me so much about how you feel for sami . but who knows ? maybe she could be swayed ... to see the good in you . but after everything you 've already done ... is it really gon na be enough to win her back ? caroline : i just do n't know . hope : you know , there is someone else we have not taken into consideration . caroline : who ? hope : actually , it 's a whole group of people . your customers . caroline , they 're invested in what happens to you too . my gosh , you 're a part of their lives . they come in , they expect to see you here behind [ hits counter ] this bar , making sure everything is the way it should be . you know , there 's something very comforting about that . caroline : oh , come now . you 're just grasping at straws . hope : no , i 'm not , because i know that i feel exactly the same way when i come in here , and i see you in action . this ... is where you belong . caroline : well , maybe some of them feel that way . but the ones that i tell off do n't . hope : mm - mm . caroline : i tell them off for not tipping my waitresses enough . hope : mm - mm . even them . everyone loves having you here ... caroline . everyone loves you . everyone . bo : and when she says everyone , she means us , too . caroline : [ laughs ] okay . we 'll give it a try . [ stammers ] let 's give it a try . ej : congratulations . you 've figured out my endgame . kristen : i told you . i know how you think . ej : [ clears throat ] well , you can leave how it plays out to me , all right ? kristen : i do n't think that 's a very good idea . ej : really . and why is that ? kristen : mm , it 's just a feeling i have . ej : [ laughs ] kristen : it 's not a very strong plan . ej : well , i 'm not inclined to change my plans based on your intuition . kristen : [ laughs ] ej , do n't let your pride get in the way . i 'm a woman . i know what tricks would work on me , and i 'd see through that one in a heartbeat . ej : right , but you 're not samantha . kristen : so you 're saying that she 's more gullible and less cynical than i am ? are we talking about the same person here ? ej : why are you so determined to insert yourself into this situation ? kristen : i 'm your sister . i want you to know that i have your back ... ej : [ laughs ] kristen : no matter what . why are you laughing ? ej : okay , okay . so what do you propose that i do ? kristen : nothing . i 'll take care of sami . ej : really . that 's wonderful . i do n't know why i did n't think of that . that 's a splendid idea . kristen : and then you 'll realize what an asset i am to you . ej : yes , well , i 'm sure you would be , uh , extraordinarily helpful , were it not for the fact , that you did unspeakably cruel things to her mother . i ca n't imagine samantha would ever want to meet you , let alone sit down for a cozy tête - à - tête . kristen : i 'm well aware of the things i did to marlena . they 're irrelevant . ej : [ laughs , claps hands ] well , they certainly may be irrelevant to you . but i rather imagine samantha and marlena think slightly differently about that . kristen : i know exactly what i need to say to sami , to get her to listen to me . which means that she will be to see you by the end of the day . she 'll want to see you . she 'll be anxious to see you . and not to speak about the two kids that you share . [ whispers ] i give you my word . rafe : listen , you need to understand that this was about protecting nicole 's baby . i was just trying to make sure that that kid had a chance at a decent life . that 's all this was about . gabi : and sami knew ? rafe : [ sighs ] no . no , i did n't tell her anything . gabi : well , that 's why she 's so mad at you . rafe : [ sighs ] i know . 'cause she trusted me . and i lied to her . again , and again . and again . sami : when did my mom call ? check the message later . [ knock on door ] sami : go away ! [ patterned knock on door ] sami : rafe , i am -- i am serious , okay ? i 'm not in the mood to deal with you right now , and your -- oh , my god . oh , my god . i 'm -- you stay right there ! you are not coming into my apartment . i am calling the police . get you out of -- kristen : no . no . those 911 operators are so overworked . let 's give 'em a break , okay ? [ drops cell phone on table ] besides , you and i have a lot of catching up to do . hope : [ sighs ] bo : thank you , thank you , thank you . you were able to get through to her when i obviously could n't . hope : no , no , no . bo : [ inhales strongly ] hope : we 're a team . bo : mm - hmm . [ laughs ] hope : we did this together . bo : yeah . i love you so very much . hope : and i love you , oh , so very much . and your precious mom . i ... bo : you ... what ? hope : [ sighs ] i 'm just so ... sorry about your mom . you have my full support . oh , gosh , brady , [ stammers ] when you left the force , this was n't exactly what you had in mind . bo : mm . hope : you had other plans you were talking about . bo : yeah , talking about the dimeras . well ... i will make time for that , believe me . the cop in me is not gon na give up on that little project . kayla : oh , i 'm glad you 're both here . hope : oh , kay , hey . kayla : hi . bo : hi . kayla : listen . bo : what ? kayla : i think i found a way that we could help mom . bo : nice . chad : listen , i just wanted to tell you that i 'm -- i 'm so sorry about what you 're going through with your mom . and especially it being on the heels of ... losing your father . and i hate that i started to complain about my own situation . i 'm -- abigail : no , chad , it 's okay . we 're friends . so i get to listen to your problems too . it 's only fair , right ? chad : right . we 'll , i hope it works out for your mother . abigail : thank you . me too . maybe next time you can tell me a little bit about what happened with melanie ? chad : no promises . abigail : bye . chad : bye . abigail : thank you . howard : you 're ej dimera 's brother , are n't you ? chad ? chad : uh , yeah . and you are ? howard : howard dawson . i 've done some , uh , consulting work for your brother . next time you see him , tell him i 'm sorry for his loss . chad : his loss ? howard : the baby . nicole walker 's miscarriage . please , just let him know he 's in my thoughts . ej : [ sighs ] [ keys click ] [ line rings ] stefano : yes . ej : it 's me . stefano : ah , elvis . i was wondering when i would hear from you . sami : well , now i know why my mother called . to warn me that you were back in salem . kristen : i wish you were n't so suspicious of me . i 'm not here to cause you any trouble . sami : really ? you learned the error of your crazy , psychotic ways , and decided to do nothing but bring joy and peace to people 's lives ? kristen : that 's pretty accurate , actually . sami : really . probably the psychotic and crazy part , anyway . really , i do n't understand how you have the nerve to show your face in this town after the hell that you rained down on my mother and everyone else in salem . kristen : well , hello pot . it 's me , kettle . sami : hilarious . lady , i do n't bat in your league . kristen : [ sighs ] here i was , so hoping we could have a fresh start . [ groans ] sami : okay , well , keep dreaming . because , in about two seconds , i am going to physically remove you from my apartment . and then i 'll never have to deal with you again . kristen : sami , i 'm not going anywhere . and you will deal with me . you know why ? 'cause you do n't have a choice . hershey 's bliss . kayla : all right , if i tell you , we have to be careful how we broach this with mom . bo : why is that ? kayla : i 've been doing some research . i found a program . they do clinical trials . advanced diagnostics . very cutting edge . mom fits the criteria of the patients that they 're looking for . they would take her in , they would evaluate her , and they would prescribe something that 's tailor - made for her . bo : sounds great . why are you nervous about telling her ? kayla : it 's a serious time commitment . bo : fine . we 'll make the time . kayla : and it 's across the country . bo : acro -- so she 'd have to leave salem ? both : [ laughter ] that 's so funny . caroline : like that ? [ laughter continues ] ej : i 've contacted you for one reason and one reason only . tell kristen to back off . i do n't want her around , and i certainly do n't need her help . stefano : it would be a mistake to dismiss her so quickly , elvis . she has the power to help our family . ej : our family is ruined . when will you get that through your head . stefano : i do n't see it because it is not true . ej : you listen to me . i told you , i do n't want anything to do with you . which means i do n't want anything to do with your designated agent . so do me a favor and tell her to back off . now ! [ phone slams desk and bounces ] gabi : nicole must be heartbroken . rafe : yeah . especially because ... she did n't think she could get pregnant again . she did . lost it . it 's not fair . gabi : rafe , look . it 's not fair to you either . i mean , you sacrificed a lot of things to make this work , and ... now the baby 's gone . rafe : yep . sami too . gabi : i mean , are you sure about that ? rafe : i lied to her . gabi : yeah , but it was to keep a promise to nicole , you know , to protect the child . rafe : pretty sure she does n't want to hear that . gabi : oh , come on . i mean , rafe , really ? it 's not like she 's ever lied to you ? rafe : sis , do n't you get it ? i am always honest with sami . no matter what . i lied to her , okay ? that 's the difference . it 's over . sami : okay , well , clearly you 're still crazy as ever , so i 'm gon na call the police , because i have to get back to work . i have a company to run . kristen : barely . i went over the financials for countess wilhelmina . quite predictably , you 've run it straight into the ground . sami : i do n't know what you 're talking about . that is -- where did you get those papers ? that is confidential information ! kristen : easy . interoffice mail . everything 's being forwarded to me now . as it should be . seeing as how ... i 'm your new boss . sami : [ laughs ] | in ej 's office , kristen told ej that she would help him get what he wanted . he did n't think she would be able to do that . she mentioned jennifer and how he was mourning his son . ej said he could take care of jennifer himself . when she mentioned sami , she got his attention . at the town square , rafe wanted to talk to sami about them and the misunderstandings between them . at the pub , bo , hope , and caroline talked about caroline 's problems . bo offered to work at the pub with her because he did n't think she could handle it by herself anymore . bo and hope also suggested getting someone else to help her if they were n't available to do it . caroline did n't like the idea and refused be treated like an invalid . while caroline was protesting their suggestions , she brought up an event she had to plan in two weeks for the fourth of july . after she finished protesting , she walked away from them . they noticed how she mentioned the event taking place on july 4th . sami wanted to hear what rafe had to say . he said things were complicated , but not for ej . rafe thought ej got what he wanted . sami did n't want him to bring rafe into this . rafe did n't want to bring ej up , but he was a huge part of the problem . he brought up the way ej told her that rafe was n't the father of nicole 's baby . sami said somebody had to . rafe said ej enjoyed hurting her the way he never wanted to . while he was pleading his case , gabi interrupted them to ask if nicole and the baby were okay . ej and kristen continued to talk about sami . kristen brought up the things sami has done in the past . kristen wanted to know what ej was going to do to rafe now that he has him right where he wanted him . when gabi was apologizing to rafe about losing the baby , sami wanted her to let rafe tell her the truth . sami thought gabi would n't feel sorry for him once she knew the truth . when sami was about to leave , rafe stopped her so she could listen to him , but she did n't do it . | <s>[INST] kristen : i know you 're not the type of person that accepts help very often , but i have a lot to offer you . ej : i do n't need your help . kristen : you really , really do . ej : cut to the chase , please . kristen : i know what you want . and i know how to get it for you . ej : really . [ clears throat ] what are you , some sort of genie ? do i have three wishes ? kristen : let 's be honest , ej . we both know there is only one wish on that list . rafe : i 'm sorry . sami : no , no . i 'm sorry . i mean , i stepped on your toe . i crashed into you . i will look where i 'm going better next time . rafe : no , no , no , please , please . please just wait . bo : no , man , that 's -- that 's great information , but i 'm gon na have to call you back . okay , you stick with it , and i 'll call you when i have some time . all right , later . hope : hey . bo : oh , hey . hi . how 's jen ? hope : uh , better now . she had a little run - in with ej earlier . he showed up at the house . bo : what the hell did he want ? hope : do n't worry about it . i 'll fill you in later . have you been here this whole time ? bo : since i had my little pow - wow with kayla and roman , yeah . hope : has your mom said anything about all the times you 've -- [ footsteps approach ] hope : hi . caroline : i think it 's fantastic . i 'm just curious to know if my babysitter enjoyed it as much as i did .

[ muffled chatter ] [ dishes clattering ] chad : you okay ? abigail : not really , no . chad : look , i heard about your mom , okay ? and everything that happened with nicole and the baby . i do n't know , i 'm just really sorry . gabi : what 's going on with nicole and the baby ? abigail : you do n't know ? gabi : no , what ? what ? what 's going on ? abigail : they 're saying that my mom pushed nicole down the stairs in the town square . gabi : are you saying nicole fell ? is she okay ? abigail : physically , yeah . she 's fine . i saw her myself . but ... the baby did n't make it . gabi : oh , my god . rafe . ej : somehow , kristen , i doubt you 're the answer to my prayers . so as amusing as this is , i 'm afraid i have work to do . kristen : i can help you , ej . ej : [ chuckles ] and why would you do that , hmm ? let me guess . because father asked you to . not only are you completely beholden to him , you 're also entirely dependent on him , which means you have to acquiesce to his every demand . am i close ? kristen : you know , just because stefano asked me to come back here does n't mean that i do n't care about you . you 're my little bro . ej : that 's a technicality and therefore entirely meaningless to me , so you 'll excuse me for not being profoundly moved . not to mention the fact that , uh , your disingenuous protestations to the contrary aside , you do n't give a damn about me . nor ... do you know the first thing about me . kristen : i know a lot more than you think . for one thing , you 're mourning the death of your son . ej : i would not go there with me . kristen : ca n't i be sad for you ? ej : no , you ca n't . and i do n't care to discuss this with you . kristen : but i 've been where you are . i know the pain you 're feeling . i know the anger that you 're carrying around . do n't you just want to lash out at jennifer ? ej : how do you know about jennifer ? kristen : i told you i did my research . what i did n't know before i came to salem i 've worked very hard to learn since . i know things . this whole idea of jennifer , though , being responsible for the death of a child -- i 'm having a very difficult time wrapping my brain around that one . ej : why is that ? heather : because the jennifer i knew back then was never capable of such a thing . but again , probably people said that about me too , and i think about the ways that i 've changed . i guess anything 's possible , right ? ej : i can take care of jennifer horton on my own . without you . kristen : but sami brady is an entirely different story . thank heavens . i finally got your attention . rafe : i know that look . you 're angry , and you 're hurt . sami : wow . you should be a detective . rafe : okay , no , no , no . sami , please , please . okay , and i -- i understand why you feel that way . look , there were people that i was trying to protect . i could n't tell you everything that i wanted to tell you . but there are no more secrets . just us . and a lot of misunderstandings , okay ? please just hear me out . just give me one chance . just one chance to explain . gabi : okay , wait . when did this happen ? abigail : yesterday . last night . gabi : oh , my god , your mom pushed nicole ? abigail : gabi , no . that 's not what i said , okay ? look , whatever happened , it was an accident . my mom would never do anything like that on purpose , ever . gabi : okay , well , then why is nicole saying -- chad : hey , hey , ca n't you see that you 're upsetting her ? gabi : look , this was rafe 's baby too , and i have a right to know . chad : so go talk to your brother . abigail 's been through enough as it is , so why do n't you just leave her the hell alone ? gabi : abigail , look . i 'm -- i 'm sorry . and i know that you 're really worried about your mom , but i 'm -- i 'm gon na -- abigail : yeah , it 's fine . just go talk to your brother . chad : what is the matter with that girl ? abigail : she was just asking questions . it 's not a big deal . chad : no , she made it all about her . like she 's the victim in this because rafe is her brother . like we 're supposed to feel sorry for her . abigail : why are you being so hard on her ? chad : i already told you . 'cause she 's totally self - consumed , like we 're all extras in her damn movie . abigail : you 're sure this does n't have anything to do with what happened with melanie ? chad : abigail , just stop . okay ? i do n't want to talk about her right now . abigail : okay . fine . sorry . chad : [ sighs ] look , i 'm sor -- i just came in here to , uh -- [ cell phone rings ] chad : hold on . i have no idea who this is . should i -- abigail : answer it , yeah . chad : sorry . hello ? stefano : hello , chad . chad : what do you want ? stefano : [ chuckles ] what do i want ? i want to talk to you , my son . find out how you are doing , if you are well . chad : well , i was , till about a second ago . kayla : yes , hello . um , my name is dr. kayla johnson , and i am , uh , chief of staff at university hospital in salem . yes , hi . um , i 'm calling about your research on early stage dementia . uh , no , i have it right here , and your results are -- they 're very impressive . uh - huh . i do -- i do have a candidate , and i wonder if you could tell me what your parameters are . oh . oh , i see . uh , no , no . she 's -- she 's really still so active . um , it -- it -- it 's really not that far yet , thank goodness . okay . no , no , no . thank you for your time . okay . okay , bye - bye . yes , hello . uh , my name is dr. kayla johnson . i 'm chief of staff at the university hospital in salem . caroline : would you two relax ? i 'm making a joke . bo : yeah . ha ! funny , ma . you 're so funny . hope : [ chuckles ] caroline : oh , i may be losing my mind . i do n't have to lose my sense of humor too , right ? bo : right . caroline : okay .

[ sighs exasperatedly ] hanging around here , giving up your life to watch over me . i mean , i do n't want to turn everybody 's life upside down , just because i 've had a bad couple of days . bo : ma , this -- this has been more than just a couple of days . it 's been going on for some time now . and i think that , um , you know , it 's just not a good idea for you to be working here all alone anymore . looks like there 's an opening for shipping coordinator . caroline : so ... [ sighs ] you do n't think i can handle being alone anymore . bo : oh , ma . you got to admit you really could use some help around here . caroline : what , like a watchdog ? a babysitter ? bo : no , no , that 's not what i 'm suggesting . caroline : oh . so i can have my own life , and i can work in a pub , as long as one of you is here to watch me . is that it ? but what happens if you 're not available ? you gon na put me somewhere in a corner to sit quietly and wait until you come to get me ? hope : no , of course not . caroline : well , i will not , you know , be treated as an invalid . bo : no , we do n't think of -- that 's not -- ma , the -- i 'm only saying this because i think if you had some help -- caroline : i -- will you please stop talking about help ? i have an event coming up in two weeks for the fourth of july . you 're telling me i ca n't go to my own party ? bo : no , no , ma . that 's -- that 's -- that 's not what i 'm saying . caroline : well , good . bo : we want you here at the pub , ma . not suggesting that anyone take you away from this . caroline : how am i supposed to stay here if i ca n't be alone ? hope : actually , i 've been doing some research online . i showed it to bo , and there is a way to make it work . if we bring someone in to help . caroline : who ? bo : someone you trust . someone who could be here when we ca n't . caroline : oh . oh , you mean a caretaker ? someone who will , uh , follow me around and -- and remind me to take my medication ? it -- so is this your -- your help ? to humiliate me ? well , i 'm telling you , you can just forget about it . there is no way . no . hope : fourth of july ? bo : [ sighs ] yeah , i know . stefano : i want to know how you are doing , my son . i mean , i want to hear your voice and for you to know that i am thinking of you . chad : really . 'cause it 's been months . let me guess . you had a reminder on your phone for this . `` call the other son today . `` i did n't even recognize the number . you 're lucky i picked up . stefano : ah . you 're upset with me . all right . i understand . but perhaps we could take a step back . you understand what i 'm saying ? start over . chad : why ? what 's the point ? it always ends the same way , does n't it ? stefano : chad , i know that you have been going through a difficult time lately . chad : nah , you know , i 'm -- i 'm totally fine . just my life has totally fallen apart . stefano : ah , that 's why i 'd like to help you now . chad : too little too late ... dad . i 'm sorry about that . abigail : no . i 'm the one who 's sorry , chad . sami : all right . rafe : all right . sami : let 's hear it . what do you have to say ? rafe : it 's complicated . and it 's so messed up . not for ej , of course . he got exactly what he wanted . sami : how about we not bring ej into this , okay ? rafe : well , i do n't want to bring him into this , obviously . but he is a huge part of this . the way that he told you that i was n't the baby 's father . sami : well , somebody had to . rafe : he enjoyed it . he enjoyed watching you be hurt that way . which i would have never wanted , trust me . never wanted to hurt you , sami . do n't want to hurt you , 'cause ... gabi : rafe ! rafe ! oh , my god . i 'm so sorry . i heard about nicole and the baby . are you okay ? [ sighs ] kristen : surprised ? so was i . especially when i learned how deep your connection with sami is . and the lengths that you 've gone to to win her affection . ej : i see father 's been keeping you very well informed . kristen : i would never judge you , who you give your heart to , believe me . ej : that is exceedingly fair of you . kristen : but , you know , the sami that i knew , back in the day , she was a piece of work . she kidnapped her own sister . now that was a real showstopper . ej : i do n't think we need to dredge up the past , do you ? kristen : as i said , i would never judge you . the heart wants what the heart wants . ej : may i quote you on that ? kristen : you may . and i just wish that people had been as understanding of me then as i 'm being of you now . ej : i see . this is -- this is you being understanding , is it ? kristen : you know what ? i 'm just stating the facts , ej . and the most pertinent fact is that sami ... what an interesting choice . ej : well , that 's a very insightful observation . but , uh , if you do n't mind ... kristen : i 'm just wondering what you have planned , now that you have him right where you want him . ej : i have no idea what you 're talking about . kristen : do i really have to spell it out for you , ej ? okay . i , uh -- i left here . i did a little investigating , after we spoke about you losing your child . ej : you mean you were sticking your nose in where it does n't belong . kristen : i found out that you changed the name of the father on the birth certificate . and the name that you removed was rafael hernandez . now that 's a man that both you and father have hated for a very long time . i do n't need all the details to connect the dots . it seems to me that you 've discovered that a fine , upstanding member of the community has committed a blatant act of fraud . for the sole purpose of protecting your ex - wife . and claiming your son as his own . i 'm gon na ask you again , ej . now that you have samantha 's ex - husband exactly where you want him ... what are you gon na do about it ? gabi : i could barely believe when i heard what had happened . i 'm so sorry , rafe . rafe : gabi , listen . gabi : no , listen to me . i know you 're not okay . you just lost a baby , rafe . rafe : which is not what i was gon na say . okay ? i tried calling you . it 's not something i wanted to leave a message on your phone -- gabi : i totally understand . trust me , i understand . sami : i think you should let him finish . gabi : excuse me ? sami : yeah , i think , um , rafe has something really important to tell you about what happened . gabi : what -- what is she talking about ? sami : she 's talking about the way that this tragedy ends . i already know the punch line here . and , um , well , when you find out , you probably wo n't feel quite so sorry for rafe . excuse me . rafe : sami . sami , please . would you just listen to me for a second ? bo : ma . listen , we 're sorry . did n't mean to upset you . caroline : well , it 's a sorry situation all around , is n't it ? i mean , when your own son does n't think anything of humiliating you . hope : oh , my gosh . caroline , the last thing we 'd ever want is for you to feel humiliated . which is why we 'd look for someone who 's discreet . you know , someone that , uh , people would just naturally assume was another employee here . caroline : i would know . bo : but would n't you feel reassured knowing that if you needed some help , someone was here ? caroline : well , i mean , this is bound to be pretty expensive , you know ? hope : do n't worry about that , right now . that is not what is important here . caroline : i 'm not going to be cavalier about my life savings ! and i 'm not gon na waste money on something frivolous ! bo : this is n't frivolous , ma , if it helps you hold onto your freedom . caroline : how am i gon na be free if someone is hovering around me , watching me every minute ? bo : there will be no hovering . they 'll only be here if you need 'em . that 's it . and it 'll also give me , your family , some assurance that it 's okay not to be here ... taking up tables for paying customers . so what do you say ? can we give it a try ? chad : ca n't believe i let him get to me . again . abigail : hey , it 's totally understandable . chad : no , no , it is n't . i mean , i should n't even care this much . abigail : but you do . chad , he 's your dad . chad : well , when he died -- i mean when we all ... thought he died , i guess i just got -- these -- these feelings came up for him . abigail : oh , no . feelings . it 's not a bad thing to have feelings for your father . chad : no , it 's not a bad thing . it 's a cruel joke , okay ? the one that i love is gone , while the one who drives me crazy is still here ? sorry . i should shut up . abigail : no . chad : you -- you 're still dealing with losing your father . and you should n't have to hear me complain about mine . abigail : it 's okay . i get it . i mean , my dad drove me crazy too . just in a different way . chad : yeah . abigail : god , i would give anything to have him back . especially right now , with everything that my mom 's going through . chad : it 's awful . abigail : yeah . chad : i mean , your mom , she 's a great person . and i hate that this is happening to her and to you . abigail : i just wish that my brother lived closer , you know ? you 're lucky that yours does . it helps , right ? that you still have your brother ? chad : [ scoffs ] yeah . still have ej . ej : my plan is to mourn the death of my son . kristen : the son that rafe hernandez conspired to keep from you ? you do n't want to make him pay for that ? ej : my little boy is gone . and he was gone before he took his first breath . so i do n't see what 's to be gained by being vindictive . kristen : maybe the more important question is ... what 's to be gained by not being vindictive ? smart ! that is so smart , ej . ej : i do n't know what you 're talking about . kristen : well , if you could play the role of the grieving father who 's big enough to be magnanimous in the face of his loss , sami is going to be so impressed by that . you see ? hello . i understand you . we are cut from the same dimera cloth , clearly . ej : i would n't say that , if i were you . kristen : well , it 's the truth . you are so much like father . whether you like it or not . now this urge -- this urge to make rafe pay for what he 's done , must be overwhelming . for you to put that aside , that tells me so much about how you feel for sami . but who knows ? maybe she could be swayed ... to see the good in you . but after everything you 've already done ... is it really gon na be enough to win her back ? caroline : i just do n't know . hope : you know , there is someone else we have not taken into consideration . caroline : who ? hope : actually , it 's a whole group of people . your customers . caroline , they 're invested in what happens to you too . my gosh , you 're a part of their lives . they come in , they expect to see you here behind [ hits counter ] this bar , making sure everything is the way it should be . you know , there 's something very comforting about that . caroline : oh , come now . you 're just grasping at straws . hope : no , i 'm not , because i know that i feel exactly the same way when i come in here , and i see you in action . this ... is where you belong . caroline : well , maybe some of them feel that way . but the ones that i tell off do n't . hope : mm - mm . caroline : i tell them off for not tipping my waitresses enough . hope : mm - mm . even them . everyone loves having you here ... caroline . everyone loves you . everyone . bo : and when she says everyone , she means us , too . caroline : [ laughs ] okay . we 'll give it a try . [ stammers ] let 's give it a try . ej : congratulations . you 've figured out my endgame . kristen : i told you . i know how you think . ej : [ clears throat ] well , you can leave how it plays out to me , all right ? kristen : i do n't think that 's a very good idea . ej : really . and why is that ? kristen : mm , it 's just a feeling i have . ej : [ laughs ] kristen : it 's not a very strong plan . ej : well , i 'm not inclined to change my plans based on your intuition . kristen : [ laughs ] ej , do n't let your pride get in the way . i 'm a woman . i know what tricks would work on me , and i 'd see through that one in a heartbeat . ej : right , but you 're not samantha . kristen : so you 're saying that she 's more gullible and less cynical than i am ? are we talking about the same person here ? ej : why are you so determined to insert yourself into this situation ? kristen : i 'm your sister . i want you to know that i have your back ... ej : [ laughs ] kristen : no matter what . why are you laughing ? ej : okay , okay . so what do you propose that i do ? kristen : nothing . i 'll take care of sami . ej : really . that 's wonderful . i do n't know why i did n't think of that . that 's a splendid idea . kristen : and then you 'll realize what an asset i am to you . ej : yes , well , i 'm sure you would be , uh , extraordinarily helpful , were it not for the fact , that you did unspeakably cruel things to her mother . i ca n't imagine samantha would ever want to meet you , let alone sit down for a cozy tête - à - tête . kristen : i 'm well aware of the things i did to marlena . they 're irrelevant . ej : [ laughs , claps hands ] well , they certainly may be irrelevant to you . but i rather imagine samantha and marlena think slightly differently about that . kristen : i know exactly what i need to say to sami , to get her to listen to me . which means that she will be to see you by the end of the day . she 'll want to see you . she 'll be anxious to see you . and not to speak about the two kids that you share . [ whispers ] i give you my word . rafe : listen , you need to understand that this was about protecting nicole 's baby . i was just trying to make sure that that kid had a chance at a decent life . that 's all this was about . gabi : and sami knew ? rafe : [ sighs ] no . no , i did n't tell her anything . gabi : well , that 's why she 's so mad at you . rafe : [ sighs ] i know . 'cause she trusted me . and i lied to her . again , and again . and again . sami : when did my mom call ? check the message later . [ knock on door ] sami : go away !

'cause you do n't have a choice . hershey 's bliss . kayla : all right , if i tell you , we have to be careful how we broach this with mom . bo : why is that ? kayla : i 've been doing some research . i found a program . they do clinical trials . advanced diagnostics . very cutting edge . mom fits the criteria of the patients that they 're looking for . they would take her in , they would evaluate her , and they would prescribe something that 's tailor - made for her . bo : sounds great . why are you nervous about telling her ? kayla : it 's a serious time commitment . bo : fine . we 'll make the time . kayla : and it 's across the country . bo : acro -- so she 'd have to leave salem ? both : [ laughter ] that 's so funny . caroline : like that ? [ laughter continues ] ej : i 've contacted you for one reason and one reason only . tell kristen to back off . i do n't want her around , and i certainly do n't need her help . stefano : it would be a mistake to dismiss her so quickly , elvis . she has the power to help our family . ej : our family is ruined . when will you get that through your head . stefano : i do n't see it because it is not true . ej : you listen to me . i told you , i do n't want anything to do with you . which means i do n't want anything to do with your designated agent . so do me a favor and tell her to back off . now !

nate : [ sighs ] i was victor 's private physician for a time , as well as his wife 's , shortly after i arrived here in genoa city . amanda : full - time ? nate : yes . then i accepted a position at memorial hospital and no longer worked for them exclusively . amanda : but you were the doctor who diagnosed victor 's blood disorder . nate : i did . amanda : and you were treating him for that . nate : we tried several different medications . when they were no longer effective , i recommended an experimental protocol . it was aggressive , but it worked . victor was improving . there were side effects , but he felt they were manageable . amanda : then those side effects worsened . nate : it happened very suddenly . when i saw victor 's labs , i knew right away victor 's medicine had been tampered with . the levels in his bloodstream doubled virtually overnight . that 's when victor suspected his son adam was behind it . amanda : in effect , poisoning him ? nate : that 's one way to put it . amanda : so the reason for faking victor 's death ... nate : was to flush out adam as the culprit . i agreed to take part in the ruse because i felt victor was still in danger . i was afraid if his son adam would try again , he would succeed in killing him . amanda : you wanted to confirm and remove the threat . is that how the newmans presented it to you ?

nate : no . i was n't given any financial incentive whatsoever . amanda : news reports stated that the authorities were involved . they considered this a sting operation . nate : if you 're asking whether they recruited me for this , the answer 's no . i ca n't blame the police . the newmans did n't reach out to them until after their plan was set . amanda : is there anything else i should know , especially as it pertains to your motives ? nate : at the time , i was dating victor 's daughter , abby newman . it 's possible my decision to participate may have been influenced by our personal relationship . amanda : if you could do it all over again , would you make the same choice ?

adam : no , i tried very hard to talk him into it . i told him he 'd have a blast . chelsea : and what did he say to that ? adam : he thought i was trying to get rid of him . chelsea : [ sighs ] so i just backed off and i called you . chelsea : connor ? can you come down here , please ? connor ! connor : what ? chelsea : hey . what 's wrong , buddy ? why do n't you want to go trick - or - treating with us ? nick : chelsea has full legal custody of connor , and that 's not gon na change . adam 's unfit to raise a child , and he has proven that over and over again . victoria : he probably could n't win a custody case -- not that he 'd even bother to try again after the way things turned out with christian . but that does n't mean that he 's gon na give up connor without a fight . nick : it just means he 'll fight dirty . victoria : he will try to manipulate chelsea or connor , or both of them . nick : well , chelsea 's not sharon . she sees right through adam 's games . victoria : regardless , chelsea has an achilles ' heel , just like any other mother does . the love for her child , and adam is not above using that against her . chelsea : you 've always loved halloween . and johnny and christian , they are so excited to see you . oh ! and the police . they closed off hyde park so the front of the coffee house is just a bunch of kids in costumes trick - or - treating and having so much fun . adam : that sounds pretty sweet . chelsea : yeah . adam : i mean , think about all the candy you 're missing out on , connor . chelsea : [ gasps ] connor : who cares about that stuff ? i 'm not a little kid anymore . i just want to hang out here with you . adam : well , that is up to your mom . this is her night with you . now you are changing your mind at the last minute ... connor : it 's not fair . you made the plan . nobody asked what i want to do . chelsea : okay . okay , if you do n't want to come with us , we 'll be disappointed , but nobody 's gon na force you . connor : can we watch a scary movie ? adam : well , not too scary . chelsea : not too scary . [ both chuckles ] connor : okay , fine . medium scary . adam : i 'd be up for that . should we make some popcorn ? adam : do you have parmesan and spices ? adam : oh , that 's right . you have a special recipe for popcorn seasoning . what else was in that besides parmesan ? it was , uh ... it was onion , powder , dill ? was that it ? chelsea : ugh ! connor : you better make it . adam : connor . everybody 's waiting for your mother at the block party . so i can -- i can do it . i can figure it out . or i can invent something even better . do you like cayenne pepper ? chelsea : [ laughing ] okay . fine , i can throw a batch together . it should n't take too long . adam : cayenne pepper . connor : gross . adam : [ scoffs ] nate : you 're turning me down . amanda : i consider it a compliment that you asked me to represent you , but ... if i stuck around , your cousin devon would not be happy . nate : i disagree . he understands how important my career is to me . amanda : maybe he can help you find another lawyer . perhaps ms . hodges . you know , someone whose face is not a painful reminder of his late wife . nate : i do n't want another lawyer . amanda : why are you so insistent about this ? why does it have to be me ? nate : for one thing , you told me you never lost a case . amanda : true , but that does not make me an expert in professional licensing defenses . nate : what matters to me is your persistence . i watched the way you handled this situation with katherine 's will . you were rock - solid in representing your client , despite the personal attacks that came your way . you ignored all the noise and kept right on going . you faced off against a billionaire and were n't daunted in the least . that 's the kind of legal ally i want . amanda : do you anticipate that i will have to face off against a billionaire again ? nate : i ca n't be sure where the newmans will come down on this , particularly victor . i was doing what they wanted , but that does not make me one of them . they stick together . amanda : my services do n't come cheap . nate : that is not a concern . i can not lose my license to practice medicine in this state . starting over someplace else ? no . that is not an option . amanda : can you please take my things back up to my room ? looks like i wo n't be leaving town , after all . nat [ sighs johnny : mommy ! victoria : baby ! billy : we 're not done trick - or - treating , but little zombie boy here needs to make a pit stop , if you know what i mean . nick : oh , yeah . victoria : well , you have a lot of layers on that costume . i 'm gon na help you out . billy : all right . nick : man , let 's see your haul here , cowboy . man , you are crushing halloween ! christian : where 's connor ? nick : you know , that 's a good question . let 's check in with chelsea and see what the hold - up is . adam : all right , so the werewolf movie 's out since we 've seen it . ooh ! what about `` the blob `` ? that 's always a hit ! connor : looks boring . [ cellphone rings ] chelsea : oh , is that me ? connor : yeah , it 's nick . chelsea : oh , um ... uh , i have butter all over my hands . i 'll call him back in a minute . connor : whoa , look ! they have `` curse of the demon ! `` adam : i do n't know . that sounds pretty cheesy . chelsea : mm , it might be too intense for you , adam . it says right there it 's `` the most terrifying story the screen has ever told ! `` adam : oh ! i 've been warned ! chelsea : [ laughs ] remember , we saw it once , connor . it 's from the ' 50s . remember , we were laughing at the special effects . connor : it 's perfect , dad . can we watch it , please ? adam : yeah . connor : mom , stay . watch it with us ! adam : you 're more than welcome to stay . kyle : we do n't even know if this story about my grandmother is true . like traci said , we need to take the time to consider all the repercussions . jack : there is no proof that eric vanderway is dina 's son . yet . but the fastest way to get that proof is to share what we 've discovered with theo and ask for a dna test . as far as traci goes , she 's in new york now . she 's left this decision to me . kyle : well , what about ashley ? should n't she weigh in ? jack : i spoke to her earlier . kyle : and ? jack : she agrees we need to reach out to this young man , if he just happens to be our nephew . kyle : please . do n't call him that . god , every time i think about it , my stomach does flips . jack : look , i know you two have had your issues in the past , but i thought things were getting between you two . kyle : only because i 've learned to keep my distance , not give him anything that he could use as ammunition , because he will . jack : okay , kyle -- kyle : dad . trust me when i say that theo is not someone you want as a member of this family . jack : he may in fact already be , regardless of how any of us feels . look , you know my history with this family . i would not feel right depriving another person of their family history . kyle : yeah , do n't compare yourself to theo . he wo n't appreciate this family like you do . he 'll just try to use us . [ doorbell rings ] jack : well , that might be him right now . kyle : wait , what ? you 're -- you 're telling him tonight ? nick : all right ! who is ready for round 2 ? we can hit the trail , go get some more candy . unless you two are so tired you need to go home and go to bed . johnny : daddy ! billy : no ! heck , no ! that 's crazy talk . christian : more candy ! johnny : more candy ! victoria : i guess it 's unanimous . nick : all right , well , then let 's go . wait . i 'm getting a text . victoria : oh , is it chelsea ? is she on her way ? nick : she 's decided to stay there with connor . and adam . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . lola : and here he is in his halloween costume . victoria : oh , how adorable . a little red chili pepper . billy , look ! look at that . billy : oh , my gosh , what a cutie pie . victoria : look at that little green stem . i just want to eat him up . billy : [ laughs ] lola : i know . he 's such a sweetheart . he never cries . i slept in the nursery with him while in miami , and he did n't wake me up once . victoria : wow , that 's really amazing for a newborn , is n't it ? lola : i know , right ? arturo and mia lucked out .

adam : i said -- we have a problem . lola : look what i made ! eyeball cake pops for mariah and tessa 's party , and i did red velvet for the color of blood . what do you think ? kyle : they 're cute . lola : okay , i was going for macabre or spooky , at the very least , but i guess `` cute `` works , too . kyle : [ sighs ] lola : look , i know that you 're still freaked out about the possibility that you and theo could be related . you hardly slept last night , and you 've been stewing about this all day . and , hey , i get it . honest , i do . this is bizarre . kyle : how about terrible ? or nightmare - inducing . lola : still ? maybe you could put it aside for a few hours . theo was n't invited to the party , and mariah and tessa have no clue what 's going on . so maybe this is a chance to just have a little fun . kyle : you say you get it , but you really don't . we were almost rid of that jerk . devon had fired him , summer 's getting bored with him . there is nothing left for theo in this town . i figured any day he 'd be on a plane back to new york and leave us all the hell alone . but if he finds about this , he will latch on to my family like the parasite he is . we 'll be chained to that bastard for the rest of our lives . amanda : wait , are you sure it was him ? how long ago was this ? i 'm gon na have to call you back . nate : you 're checking out . amanda : i am belatedly taking your advice and heading home . nate : before you do that , i could use some legal advice . amanda : um ... i 'll be right with you . nick : why do you have to go pick up connor ? why ca n't adam bring him here ? chelsea : he said there was a problem with connor 's costume . billy : wardrobe malfunction ? chelsea : well , i mean connor 's a cowboy . his costume is basically a hat and boots , so there must be more to it . nick : does n't pass the smell test . i 'll go with you . victoria : you can leave christian with us . billy : yeah . chelsea : oh , no , i do n't want you to miss out on the fun with it . it 's fine , i can handle it . victoria : those are famous last words . chelsea : yeah , i understand why you 're skeptical , but adam 's actually been on his best behavior lately . nick : well , that 's when you should worry the most . chelsea : why do n't you start making the rounds with christian , and i 'll be back with connor as soon as possible ? nick : okay . we 'll hang out here . we 'll , uh -- we 'll meet up later . chelsea : okay . thanks . have fun . billy : okay ! who 's ready to go score some candy ? johnny : me ! christian : me ! billy : yeah ? all right ! you two with me . let 's go ! additional sponsorship lola : you 've done all that you can . you already warned traci and jack about theo . kyle : i 'm not sure they actually listened . lola : they would n't ignore your feelings , kyle . kyle : yeah . at least traci agrees we should consider this carefully . but she 's a writer , wants to believe every villain has a redemption arc . lola : a villain ? come on , now , that 's a little over - the - top , do n't you think ? i mean , yeah , theo 's a little immature and petty sometimes -- kyle : he has a mean streak a mile wide . i 'm trying to protect my family . lola : baby . you need to take a deep breath . kyle : [ sighs ] theo 's been trying to miss with me , with us , for months . i mean , have you forgotten how he tried to turn celeste against me , picking a fight at the bachelor party , crashing the wedding ? lola : he was afraid he was gon na lose his old drinking buddy to married life . kyle : [ groans ] lola : he seems to have gotten over that . kyle : that 's what he wants you to think ! his resentment goes way deeper , i can feel it whenever i 'm around him . lola : seriously ? kyle : yes ! i -- i always have to have my guard up because i 'm worried about what he 's gon na pull next ! and if my dad welcomes him into this family , that 's the way i will live from now on . lola : [ sighs ] kyle : i 'm sorry . i should n't be venting to you . you 're not the one i need to convince . lola : where are you going ? kyle : to talk to my dad before it 's too late . lola : what about the party ? kyle : i 'll be back . lola : [ scoffs ] [ exhales sharply ] nate : the state medical licensing board has opened in inquiry into my role into helping falsify victor 's death . if they rule against me , they could revoke my license from practicing medicine here in wisconsin . amanda : well , are you licensed in any other states ? nate : several , but this is where i chose to make my home . i have friends here , family . it 'd kill me to have to leave . amanda : i followed the story when it was in the press , so i know the basics , but ... tell me about your relationship with victor newman . he was your employer ? nate : [ sighs ] i was victor 's private physician for a time , as well as his wife 's , shortly after i arrived here in genoa city . amanda : full - time ? nate : yes . then i accepted a position at memorial hospital and no longer worked for them exclusively . amanda : but you were the doctor who diagnosed victor 's blood disorder . nate : i did . amanda : and you were treating him for that . nate : we tried several different medications . when they were no longer effective , i recommended an experimental protocol . it was aggressive , but it worked . victor was improving . there were side effects , but he felt they were manageable . amanda : then those side effects worsened . nate : it happened very suddenly . when i saw victor 's labs , i knew right away victor 's medicine had been tampered with . the levels in his bloodstream doubled virtually overnight . that 's when victor suspected his son adam was behind it . amanda : in effect , poisoning him ? nate : that 's one way to put it . amanda : so the reason for faking victor 's death ... nate : was to flush out adam as the culprit . i agreed to take part in the ruse because i felt victor was still in danger . i was afraid if his son adam would try again , he would succeed in killing him . amanda : you wanted to confirm and remove the threat . is that how the newmans presented it to you ? nate : i made the decision to lie , compromised my ethics in order to save my patient 's life . simple as that . amanda : yes , but did the newmans threaten or coerce you ? nate : no . amanda : did they offer you money ? nate : no . i was n't given any financial incentive whatsoever . amanda : news reports stated that the authorities were involved . they considered this a sting operation . nate : if you 're asking whether they recruited me for this , the answer 's no . i ca n't blame the police . the newmans did n't reach out to them until after their plan was set . amanda : is there anything else i should know , especially as it pertains to your motives ? nate : at the time , i was dating victor 's daughter , abby newman . it 's possible my decision to participate may have been influenced by our personal relationship . amanda : if you could do it all over again , would you make the same choice ? nate : no , i would not . so , what do you think ? will you represent me before the licensing board ? amanda : nate ... i 'm sorry , but i do n't think i can help you . victoria : here you go . nick : thank you . pretty cool of billy to take the first shift trick - or- treating . once connor gets here , i 'll take over . victoria : so , how is chelsea handling his move to adam 's place ? nick : she misses him like crazy . victoria : well , i know what that 's like . nick : she never would have agreed to this if connor had n't be acting out . when adam left town , it really messed up his kid 's head . victoria : [ sighs ] poor chelsea . i still ca n't get over what you told me about him jumping off of that jungle gym . that 's an image she 's probably never gon na be able to get out of her mind . nick : you just have to do everything you can to keep your kid safe , you know , reassure them that they are loved by both parents . victoria : still , you ca n't be that comfortable with adam having such an influence over connor , especially after he told christian that you 're not his father . nick : it 's like this constant undercurrent at home , this low - level dread that adam 's gon na revert back to type . i just have to keep reminding myself that this is a temporary arrangement . victoria : [ sighs ] well , let 's hope so . adam : oh . well , you always did enjoy bartending . chelsea : where 's connor ? adam : he 's upstairs . he did n't want to put on his costume . chelsea : even the hat ? he told me he loved his costume . adam : no , i told him he could wear something else , and he just made a bunch of excuses . he just flat - out did n't want to go . chelsea : did you say anything to discourage him ? adam : no , i tried very hard to talk him into it . i told him he 'd have a blast . chelsea : and what did he say to that ? adam : he thought i was trying to get rid of him . chelsea : [ sighs ] so i just backed off and i called you . chelsea : connor ? can you come down here , please ? connor ! connor : what ? chelsea : hey . what 's wrong , buddy ? why do n't you want to go trick - or - treating with us ? nick : chelsea has full legal custody of connor , and that 's not gon na change . adam 's unfit to raise a child , and he has proven that over and over again . victoria : he probably could n't win a custody case -- not that he 'd even bother to try again after the way things turned out with christian . but that does n't mean that he 's gon na give up connor without a fight . nick : it just means he 'll fight dirty . victoria : he will try to manipulate chelsea or connor , or both of them . nick : well , chelsea 's not sharon . she sees right through adam 's games . victoria : regardless , chelsea has an achilles ' heel , just like any other mother does . the love for her child , and adam is not above using that against her . chelsea : you 've always loved halloween . and johnny and christian , they are so excited to see you . oh ! and the police . they closed off hyde park so the front of the coffee house is just a bunch of kids in costumes trick - or - treating and having so much fun . adam : that sounds pretty sweet . chelsea : yeah . adam : i mean , think about all the candy you 're missing out on , connor . chelsea : [ gasps ] connor : who cares about that stuff ? i 'm not a little kid anymore . i just want to hang out here with you . adam : well , that is up to your mom . this is her night with you . now you are changing your mind at the last minute ... connor : it 's not fair . you made the plan . nobody asked what i want to do . chelsea : okay . okay , if you do n't want to come with us , we 'll be disappointed , but nobody 's gon na force you . connor : can we watch a scary movie ? adam : well , not too scary . chelsea : not too scary . [ both chuckles ] connor : okay , fine . medium scary . adam : i 'd be up for that . should we make some popcorn ? adam : do you have parmesan and spices ? adam : oh , that 's right . you have a special recipe for popcorn seasoning . what else was in that besides parmesan ? it was , uh ... it was onion , powder , dill ? was that it ? chelsea : ugh ! connor : you better make it . adam : connor . everybody 's waiting for your mother at the block party . so i can -- i can do it . i can figure it out . or i can invent something even better . do you like cayenne pepper ? chelsea : [ laughing ] okay . fine , i can throw a batch together . it should n't take too long . adam : cayenne pepper . connor : gross . adam : [ scoffs ] nate : you 're turning me down . amanda : i consider it a compliment that you asked me to represent you , but ... if i stuck around , your cousin devon would not be happy . nate : i disagree . he understands how important my career is to me . amanda : maybe he can help you find another lawyer . perhaps ms . hodges . you know , someone whose face is not a painful reminder of his late wife . nate : i do n't want another lawyer . amanda : why are you so insistent about this ? why does it have to be me ? nate : for one thing , you told me you never lost a case . amanda : true , but that does not make me an expert in professional licensing defenses . nate : what matters to me is your persistence . i watched the way you handled this situation with katherine 's will . you were rock - solid in representing your client , despite the personal attacks that came your way . you ignored all the noise and kept right on going . you faced off against a billionaire and were n't daunted in the least . that 's the kind of legal ally i want . amanda : do you anticipate that i will have to face off against a billionaire again ? nate : i ca n't be sure where the newmans will come down on this , particularly victor . i was doing what they wanted , but that does not make me one of them . they stick together . amanda : my services do n't come cheap . nate : that is not a concern . i can not lose my license to practice medicine in this state . starting over someplace else ? no . that is not an option . amanda : can you please take my things back up to my room ? looks like i wo n't be leaving town , after all . nat [ sighs johnny : mommy ! victoria : baby ! billy : we 're not done trick - or - treating , but little zombie boy here needs to make a pit stop , if you know what i mean . nick : oh , yeah . victoria : well , you have a lot of layers on that costume . i 'm gon na help you out . billy : all right . nick : man , let 's see your haul here , cowboy . man , you are crushing halloween ! christian : where 's connor ? nick : you know , that 's a good question . let 's check in with chelsea and see what the hold - up is . adam : all right , so the werewolf movie 's out since we 've seen it . ooh ! what about `` the blob `` ? that 's always a hit ! connor : looks boring . [ cellphone rings ] chelsea : oh , is that me ? connor : yeah , it 's nick . chelsea : oh , um ... uh , i have butter all over my hands . i 'll call him back in a minute . connor : whoa , look ! they have `` curse of the demon ! `` adam : i do n't know . that sounds pretty cheesy . chelsea : mm , it might be too intense for you , adam . it says right there it 's `` the most terrifying story the screen has ever told ! `` adam : oh ! i 've been warned ! chelsea : [ laughs ] remember , we saw it once , connor . it 's from the ' 50s . remember , we were laughing at the special effects . connor : it 's perfect , dad . can we watch it , please ? adam : yeah . connor : mom , stay . watch it with us ! adam : you 're more than welcome to stay . kyle : we do n't even know if this story about my grandmother is true . like traci said , we need to take the time to consider all the repercussions . jack : there is no proof that eric vanderway is dina 's son . yet . but the fastest way to get that proof is to share what we 've discovered with theo and ask for a dna test . as far as traci goes , she 's in new york now . she 's left this decision to me . kyle : well , what about ashley ? should n't she weigh in ? jack : i spoke to her earlier . kyle : and ? jack : she agrees we need to reach out to this young man , if he just happens to be our nephew . kyle : please . do n't call him that . god , every time i think about it , my stomach does flips . jack : look , i know you two have had your issues in the past , but i thought things were getting between you two . kyle : only because i 've learned to keep my distance , not give him anything that he could use as ammunition , because he will . jack : okay , kyle -- kyle : dad . trust me when i say that theo is not someone you want as a member of this family . jack : he may in fact already be , regardless of how any of us feels . look , you know my history with this family . i would not feel right depriving another person of their family history . kyle : yeah , do n't compare yourself to theo . he wo n't appreciate this family like you do . he 'll just try to use us . [ doorbell rings ] jack : well , that might be him right now . kyle : wait , what ? you 're -- you 're telling him tonight ? nick : all right ! who is ready for round 2 ? we can hit the trail , go get some more candy . unless you two are so tired you need to go home and go to bed . johnny : daddy ! billy : no ! heck , no ! that 's crazy talk . christian : more candy ! johnny : more candy ! victoria : i guess it 's unanimous . nick : all right , well , then let 's go . wait . i 'm getting a text . victoria : oh , is it chelsea ? is she on her way ? nick : she 's decided to stay there with connor . and adam . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . lola : and here he is in his halloween costume . victoria : oh , how adorable . a little red chili pepper . billy , look ! look at that . billy : oh , my gosh , what a cutie pie . victoria : look at that little green stem . i just want to eat him up . billy : [ laughs ] lola : i know . he 's such a sweetheart . he never cries . i slept in the nursery with him while in miami , and he did n't wake me up once . victoria : wow , that 's really amazing for a newborn , is n't it ? lola : i know , right ? arturo and mia lucked out . [ laughs ] victoria : yeah . uh , well , not that you 're biased , or anything . lola : [ laughs ] okay . you know , arturo had just sent me these , and i 'm so glad that you guys are here because i was dying to show someone . billy : where 's kyle ? you 're not spending your first halloween together as a married couple ? lola : oh , no , we 're going out later . he just had to take care of something first . victoria : oh ! billy : at where , jabot ? lola : he needed to speak to jack , but it was something about dina ? victoria : speaking of cute kids , look at our little creepers -- so cute ! lola : oh , my god , i love it ! is that a -- victoria : yeah , it 's a tiara . she got to be a zombie and a princess , so ... it 's perfect for her . billy : [ chuckles ] victoria : [ laughs ] kyle : i 've never been so glad to see a trick - or - treater . jack : kyle , theo is coming by any moment now . kyle : dad , you know ... dina kept this a secret all her life . she could have reached out to eric vanderway at any time and chose not to . she did n't want this coming out . we should respect her -- jack : i have considered all of this . all of it . here 's what i 've concluded . dina kept quiet because she did n't want to cause anyone any pain . kyle : yeah . exactly . jack : think about who she was protecting -- john , stuart , maybe eric vanderway . they 're all gone , and dina is well past caring about what anyone thinks . listen , we have no reason to feel ashamed of this family connection . kyle : [ chuckles ] give it time . i guarantee you , theo will give us plenty of reason to be ashamed . that 's his specialty . [ doorbell rings ] kyle : dad . do n't do this . i 'm begging you , just -- please , for everyone 's sake . jack : this is happening , kyle . do you want to stay and help me explain ? kyle : i want no part in this . jack : wait , wait . trust me , this is going to wk out okay . theo ! hi , thanks for coming out . come on in . theo : not a problem at all . oh , hey , kyle . i did n't know you 'd be here . jack : my son and i are having a difference of opinion . theo : i 've been there . jack : come on in . have a seat . so , uh ... i will get right to the point of your visit . um , all of these things that you see belong to my mother . dina abbott mergeron . she is in the later stages of alzheimer 's , and my sister traci and i are trying to , uh , get a clearer picture of her early years , trying to put the puzzle pieces where they fit . in that process , we found a letter that she wrote to a friend of hers , stuart brooks , right after they graduated . does the name stuart brooks mean anything to you ? theo : no . should it ? billy : did i tell you how delicious you look tonight ? victoria : tell me again . billy : mm , i 'd rather show you . victoria : well , you 'll get your chance . your costume is pretty amazing , too . billy : oh , this old thing ? victoria : i do n't think you look a day over , mm , 400 . billy : oh , do n't say `` day . `` what are you talking about ? i 'm a vampire . that kills the mood . victoria : i 'm sorry . i 'm so sorry , what was i thinking ? billy : is it the glasses ? is it the hair ? victoria : [ giggles ] billy : is it the jacket ? victoria : i do n't know if it 's the jacket , per se . but i think it 's the way that you are with the kids . and how much they adore . billy : [ chuckles ] victoria : nothing is sexier than that to me . billy : what about when i 'm peeling johnny off the ceiling from all the candy that nick 's feeding him right now ? you 're still gon na think i 'm sexy then ? victoria : i think i will . billy : mm . you know , hannah said she 's available tonight . victoria : oh , did she now ? billy : mm - hmm . victoria : hmm . billy : what if i go talk to her , ask her to take johnny to go pick up katie at her party ? she can deal with the sugar high , and then we can have a little adult celebration ? victoria : [ giggles ] i think that sounds like a genius plan . billy : okay , then . victoria : okay , then . billy : let me go get that done . victoria : you do that . billy : okay . victoria : [ giggles ] nate ! hi . nate : hey , there . victoria : happy halloween . nate : i 'll take your word for it . victoria : oh . tough night . um , i 'm sorry . i heard that you and my sister broke up . nate : ah , that 's life , i guess . victoria : i do n't really know the details , but obviously , uh , it happened after we asked you to be a part of my father 's plan . i 'm sorry if it caused any trouble between you and my sister . nate : my relationship was abby was the tip of the iceberg . victoria : what does that mean ? nate : thanks to the fallout , i may be about to lose something i worked extremely hard for , all because of the newmans . victoria : professional misconduct ? nate : yeah , you were n't there when victor pitched his scheme to the rest of us . i voiced my concern about what it could do to my good standing in the medical community , but ... the consensus was that faking victor 's death would be the best way to stop adam . so i agreed to go along . now it 's backfiring , big time . victoria : well , when is your hearing with the state licensing board ? nate : soon . [ sighs ] the good news is , i have a very tenacious lawyer . victoria : i would really want to help however i can , so give me his or her name , and i would be happy to pay for your legal bills . nate : thank you for your offer , but i can not accept . victoria : why not ? nate : i have to convince the board that i was n't bribed or coerced . accepting newman funds to pay for my defense ... victoria : oh , right . it would n't fly . yeah , i got it . listen , i 'm sorry , very sorry that this is happening to you , and i would be happy to help in any way that i can . if you need a witness , i would -- i would be willing to testify . i 'm sure my parents would be , too . nate : thank you . my , uh , lawyer may be in touch . victoria : nate , uh ... good luck . billy : was that nate ? victoria : yeah . um , it was . billy : what 's wrong ? victoria : [ sighs ] my brother adam . he 's the gift that just keeps on giving . billy : [ scoffs ] [ wind howling ] adam : aah ! connor : [ giggles ] adam : why did n't you tell me that there was an evil clown in this ? i 'm not gon na get any sleep now ! i 'm deathly afraid of evil clowns ! connor : you are not . adam : mm . you want to bet ? connor : dad , it 's hilarious . adam : i 'm pretty sure your dad actually had a nightmare the first time he saw this movie , did n't you ? adam : oh , yeah . oh , yeah . because of the evil clown ! chelsea : [ giggles ] connor : no way ! it was about the monster . i 'm not afraid of clowns . adam : well , you are a braver man than i am . connor : [ giggles ] chelsea : you 're very brave . adam : [ chuckles ] [ growling , wind howling ] theo : [ stammers ] my dad and you may have been ... half - brothers ? that 's -- jack : pretty mind - blowing , is n't it ? theo : if this is true , you -- you 'd be my uncle , and ... and kyle ... wow , i -- jack : kyle would be your first cousin . pretty astounding coincidence , given how long you two have been friends . theo : yeah , i 'll say . jack : listen , i 'm gon na ask that you take a dna test . so that we can compare your dna with dina 's , make sure she 's your grandmother . should get our results in just a few days . theo : yeah , i -- absolutely . you know , the sooner , the better . jack : good . thanks . and for what it 's worth , i -- i wish i 'd found out this information a long time ago . i , uh -- i would have liked to have known your dad . theo : i think you would have liked him . dad was , uh , rough around the edges , but a good guy . principled , you know ? jack : i look forward to learning more about him . i ca n't help wonder if eric vanderway knew about any of this . theo : he never mentioned adoption . even if he did know , i doubt he had any idea who his birth parents were . jack : yeah , adoption 's in that era were n't quite as open as they are today . look , i 'm also sorry you wo n't get to know dina as she was , or get to ask her what was going through her mind when she gave up her infant son . theo : it 's not so hard to imagine . like you said , things were different then . she did n't want to be shamed , excluded . jack : i 'd like to think that young woman would feel some measure of peace in knowing that one day , the two branches of her family would reunite . theo : kyle 's not too happy about this , though , is he ? he did n't even want you to tell me . that was the `` difference of opinion , `` right ? the reason he walked out when i showed up ? jack : tell you what , let 's try to be patient with each other . this is a lot to digest . kyle : [ sighs ] nick : johnny 's out in the parking lot with hannah . she 's gon na let him run some laps before she goes and picks up katie . victoria : okay , well , i 'm gon na go help her corral him so that she can be on her way . and then we can be on our way . billy : yes . nick : i think i 'm gon na grabs some coffee and then head on home with christian . hey , why do n't you go count your candy at the bar there ? billy : maybe chelsea 's already there ? nick : yeah . maybe . billy : do n't let adam get inside your head , nick . and i know that sounds ironic coming from me , but i 'm kind of expert on it at this point . it 's one thing to keep your eye on him , it 's another one to let your issues with him mess with your life . nick : noted . billy : i did hear about your news . running for city council ? i think that 's a good idea . with chelsea 's job at the grand phoenix , you two have something to focus on besides adam . do n't let him knock you off your path you 're supposed to be on . nick : it 's easier said than done . billy : [ chuckles ] nick : what do you got here ? i like this one . you know , the devil has something here . ready and present . he 's most dangerous when he 's being present . adam : hey . adam : he 's sleeping .

[ scene_break ] arianna : look , we never said that we did n't still care about each other , we do . i mean , it was actually a really hard decision to make . brady : we agreed that what we have , it 's just ... not enough . melanie : i know you want me to stay out of your lives and leave you guys alone . but unfortunately for you , it looks like i take after my mom . and i 'm not gon na stand for that . so will you please just talk to each other ? arianna : well , honey , this is not fair what you 're doing . melanie : no , what 's not fair is that you guys were about to get married , and then nicole shows up out of jail or wherever she came from and everything got messed up ! so who is it gon na hurt to talk to each other ? brady : your call . [ sighs ] arianna : okay . yeah , we can talk . yeah . melanie : sweet , cool . bad news , though , the lake is not really doing it for me anymore . so i 'm gon na let you guys do your thing , i 'm gon na head out . there are two turkey sandwiches in there , along with maggie 's divine potato salad , so you know , knock yourselves out . and i 'll see you later , okay ? [ clears throat ] arianna : you think she 's right ? you think we made a big mistake ? [ scene_break ] chloe : why are you suddenly turning against philip ? daniel : no , i 'm not turning against him . i just ... you know , he 's older than melanie , and that can throw off the balance of power in a relationship . and i would n't want him , you know , pushing her around . chloe : well , you 're older than i am and you do n't push me around . daniel : no , i do n't . but philip does . chloe : what are you talking about ? daniel : like right now . he wanted you to keep a secret from me . chloe : he thought he was protecting melanie . daniel : well , what 'd he think i was gon na do ? read her the riot act for telling him something that i probably should n't have told her myself ? chloe : oh , my god , this is all my fault . daniel : see , right there . right there -- and that 's the other thing that bothers me . why is it you 're always upset after you 've been talking to him ? chloe : i 'm not . daniel : you are . and look how philip 's handled this . he finds out that you 're gon na have a baby , he does n't keep it to himself and wait for you to go tell him the good news , you know what he does ? he gets in his car , in the middle of the day , and he comes to congratulate you . and then next thing you know , he 's trying to get you to keep something from me . chloe : it was just a little white lie . daniel : yeah , to him maybe . well , i hope he 's not tying my daughter up in knots the way he does you . chloe : the only reason i 'm tied up in knots right now is 'cause you wo n't let it go . daniel : i can do that . if you 'll do something for me . i just wish that you would put maybe a little distance between yourself and philip . [ scene_break ] sami : what is it , nicole ? 'cause i thought you had decided to chase after brady now , and that you were gon na leave me and ej alone . ej : it 's fine , let 's just get out of here . sami : no , in a minute . i wan na understand what 's going on . you think you have a chance with brady . but to do that , you have to make sure that arianna 's behind bars -- this is sort of how i figured it . so ej 's screwing that up for you , so now you 're gon na screw with us ? nicole : what is all this `` us `` talk ? is he reeling you in again ? wow , nicely done , elvis . ej : you 're exactly right , samantha . so why do n't we get out of her presence before she does anymore harm . sami : no , i wan na hear her say it . so what is it ? is this about brady ? or are you gon na try and do something to screw with my life again ? [ scene_break ] philip : hey . melanie : hi -- hey , what are you doing home ? philip : looking for you . melanie : why ? philip : in my fantasy , you were n't wearing this bathing suit . melanie : oh , yeah ? philip : mm , here . melanie : what ! philip : you like daisies , right ? melanie : yeah , i do . what did -- what -- i just get flowers for no reason ? philip : is n't it our five month anniversary or something ? melanie : mm . you 're setting the bar awfully high . i 'm gon na be expecting this treatment now for the next billion years we 're married . what , did i say something ? [ scene_break ] chloe : could we please not argue about philip ? daniel : so you 're not gon na do what i asked ? chloe : what ? keep my distance from him ? i do n't really see how that 's possible , considering he 's your daughter 's husband , for one thing . daniel : okay , okay , okay . so together , we go out as a couple ... but you avoid seeing him one - on - one . is that so difficult ? chloe : no , i guess not . but do n't you think that 's a little mean , just to suddenly blow him off ? he 's a good friend of mine . daniel : no , no , no , he 's not just a good friend , chloe . and you know damn well he 's more than that . chloe : what ? daniel : no , you guys were together before , right ? you were once a couple ? chloe : yes , but i do n't -- daniel : so does n't it occur to you that that might just make me feel , i do n't know , slightly uncomfortable ? chloe : come on , you have no reason to be jealous about -- daniel : this is n't a question of jealousy . no , you are with the guy all the time . now why is that ? why ? he is a married man , for god 's sake . not to mention he has a job . an important one , apparently . but yet , you know what , he has all the time in the world to come and see you . to congratulate you on a pregnancy that he 's not even supposed to know about . chloe : i ... i do n't know why you 're so mad . daniel : no ? all right , well , let me clue you in . chloe : wow . daniel : i was being a little disingenuous before . chloe : okay . daniel : i am jealous . [ scene_break ] brady : you know , i still look at you , and i still want you . i still love you very much . arianna : i love you . i did n't do what they said i did . brady : i know that . [ sighs ] what happened ? tell me what the hell went wrong here ? arianna : you got ta know . it was nicole . [ scene_break ] nicole : all right , you wan na know what 's on my mind ? [ phone rings ] nicole : i 'll tell you , but it has nothing to do with arianna and brady , it has everything to do -- sami : hey , hey , this is about my kids . i got ta take it . hey , grandma . nicole : talk about saved by the bell , huh ? well , that 's -- that 's only a temporary stay of execution . you know , i can tell sami at any time that you kidnapped sydney and put her through hell . ej : i 'm sure . as you have been operating so diligently . you 're well aware of the fact that an audiotape can not be admitted into evidence in a court of law . do you know why that is ? i 'll tell you . it is because they are very easily doctored . you see , what possible reason would i have to kidnap my own child ? whereas you ... on the other hand , have every reason to want to harm samantha and me . so you go ahead , play your tape . i will just say you fabricated it . and who do you think she will believe ? [ scene_break ] chloe : i did n't realize that my friendship with philip felt like a threat to you . daniel : what , you thought i 'd be thrilled about it ? you guys , and your little meetings at the brady pub or wherever ? then him coming over here today ? and you telling me that you confide in him all the time . chloe : not all the time . daniel : and yet , when i asked you just to keep a little distance with him , you think i 'm being unreasonable . and then , boom , you just shut me out . chloe : fine ! i do n't think you 're being unreasonable . i agree to it , okay ? i 'll avoid philip kiriakis like the plague . if he ever calls or stops by , god forbid , i 'll just tell him , `` philip , i 'm sorry , we 're not allowed to be friends because daniel feels excluded . `` daniel : you know what ? you know what , never mind . just forget it ! you do whatever the hell you wan na do , all right ? chloe : daniel , wait . daniel : mm . [ scene_break ] nicole : you 're just trying to intimidate me because you know i can deliver the goods . ej : nicole , if you really felt that tape would convince samantha , you would 've played it by now . you know the problem ? when you got out of prison , you should 've left salem . just packed up your bags and disappeared . you would 've been fine . but you had to come back here because you wanted to get even with me and you wanted to dig your talons into brady . well , you 've lost on both counts , you understand that , do n't you ? samantha and i are very , very happy . nicole : mm - hmm . ej : she despises you , and brady will too once i prove that you framed arianna . nicole : you 're all talk , you know that ? [ whispers ] all talk . ej : you ... you see young william over there ? well , he and i are getting along famously right now . nicole : mm - hmm . ej : and he 's come to see my father as a grandfather . now the girl with him , that is gabi hernandez . nicole : yeah , i know who she is . ej : she 's very grateful to me because i defended her sister . you see , we 're like a big happy family . nicole : you 're feeling very smug right now , are n't you , ej ? but you know what ? i do n't have to talk to sami to pull this off . so you know what , you and your big , happy family will be non - existent . and the clock starts now . [ scene_break ] philip : well , something happened today . something you might not be too crazy about . melanie : okay . philip : uh ... daniel kinda found out that i knew chloe was pregnant and that i heard from you . melanie : oh , that 's why i got flowers . daniel 's mad at me ? philip : no . no , he was great . i really do n't know what you could do to make that guy angry with you . melanie : oh . [ giggles ] whew . philip : [ chuckles ] yeah . i , um .... i had a little bit of explaining to do . i mean , i do n't -- it was n't a big deal , but you know he walked in and i had to explain why i was there . melanie : that 's not a big deal . philip : i know . i guess i could 've lied . melanie : no , that would 've been worse . philip : you think ? melanie : yeah ! like , you and i have done our fair share of lying , and it almost always absolutely never ends well , so . i 'm glad we just tell the truth now . philip : yeah , me too . [ scene_break ] arianna : still happening . brady : what 's still happening ? arianna : i mention nicole 's name , the walls go up . brady : you know what , you and mel , you think you have this whole thing figured out . i just do n't agree at all . i do n't think we 're apart because of nicole at all . arianna : okay , what 's your theory ? brady : i got a theory . but first of all , i wan na tell you that i think you 're crazy to be listening to that jerk , all right ? arianna : i assume you 're talking about ej , the guy that got me out of jail . the guy that paid for my bail . brady : i would 've paid your bail in a minute . all you had to do was ask me . arianna : we were broken up , brady . and ej has never doubted my innocence . brady : you know , ari , i never said i was perfect . i do n't know if you know this about me , but i start my day the same way every morning . i wake up , and i decide that i 'm going to be sober for one more day . because i 've hit rock bottom . i 've seen it . i 've been there . and so has nicole , and that 's why i ca n't just turn my back on her . i do n't think you understand people like nicole and me , all right . we 're not like you . you have innate strength . it 's very natural for you , you can handle drug dealers in prison , and your sister , and all your problems easily . you 're not like us . we ca n't do that . arianna : and you do n't see how strong i think you are for getting up everyday and making that decision ! you relate more to nicole than you do to me . and that is our problem . is n't it ? [ scene_break ] sami : so where 'd nicole go ? was n't she gon na wait around to tell me her big secret ? ej : oh , um ... will : what big secret ? sami : well , it 's certainly interesting . she claims that she has the goods on ej , and she wanted -- ej : obviously , she does n't . i have a good idea , why do n't we go see johnny and allie over at caroline 's ? sami : yeah , all right . ej : come on . nicole : wait , wait , wait . do n't leave now . wait , wait , wait , the show 's just about to start . ej : no , nicole , i think we 've humored you quite enough today . nicole : wait , nah , come on . stick around , listen . i just talked to my producer , and i told him that i have this incredible exclusive . and so he 's sending a crew right now . sami : what exclusive ? nicole : well , you and all of salem will find out . and i guarantee it will knock your socks off . [ scene_break ] arianna : yeah , i 'm on my way . thanks , frank . brady : you got ta go ? arianna : yeah . the station is taping a live segment on the pier . and frank , he 's obviously a believer in innocent until proven guilty , so -- unless he 's just that short of help . anyway , i 'm just very excited i still have my job , so i have to go . brady : that 's great . okay , but before you go , i wan na ask you if you wan na continue this conversation ... some other time ? or are we done ? arianna : i think we 're done , brady . [ scene_break ] melanie : those flowers are so pretty . philip : you did n't take them up with you . melanie : i just wanted maggie to see them , she loves daisies too . philip : maggie ? melanie : yeah , this is her house . philip : yeah , but i did n't get them for maggie . i got them for you . melanie : i know , i just ... philip : what ? something on your mind ? melanie : [ clears throat ] i got a visit from vivian today . philip : vivian ? melanie : mm - hmm . philip : what 'd she want ? melanie : well ... what are you doing ? philip : calling vivian . melanie : no . philip : she knows the rules . melanie : no , hang up , you do n't have to . stop that . philip : vivian ... [ scoffs ] she 's crazy . melanie : i know . look , she just stopped by to try and sell me on the idea of you and i going to live with her and victor . philip : really ? i hope you told her what to do with that idea . melanie : of course i did . philip : god , that woman drives me nuts . melanie : now who are you calling ? philip : i 'm calling you a bodyguard . melanie : no bodyguards , no . no , i can just see it now . me and igor just chillin ' , everywhere i go . philip : okay , but look -- melanie : look , i ... i did n't start talking about this to talk about vivian . philip : what do you wan na talk about ? melanie : our future . [ scene_break ] chloe : i 'm sorry . that was really unfair . [ sighs ] and you were right . i should keep my distance from philip . i mean , yes , he 's my friend . but he does somehow tie me up in knots , or however you put it . and i would never wan na make you feel jealous or threatened in any way . i love you so much . and you are the most important person in the world to me . you have to know that . daniel : i do . i love you , too . come on . chloe : [ sigh ] daniel : the truth is ... i was a little riled up before i came here . chloe : is that why you came home early ? daniel : yeah . chloe : what 's up ? daniel : well , i came from giving hell to vivian alamain . chloe : what ? daniel : i heard she was here last night and she upset you . chloe : i would 've told you about it sooner , but i fell asleep before you got home -- daniel : sh , sh . hey , hey , hey , honey , honey , it 's okay . it 's okay . come on , just -- just -- tell me what she said to you . chloe : um ... well , uh ... remember that idea i had that you and carly were having an affair ? daniel : kinda hard to forget . chloe : well , i had that idea because vivian wanted me to have it . daniel : what do you mean ? chloe : remember that nurse , greg ? daniel : greg , gre -- oh , the guy you said told you that i left the hospital with carly ? chloe : yeah , that guy . the one who conveniently quit his job and disappeared . well , he said what he did because vivian paid him off . daniel : and she told you this last night . oh , i am gon na wring her scrawny little neck . chloe : no , no , do n't go anywhere near her , please . just let it go . daniel : let it go ? chloe : yeah . look , i thought i was losing my mind before . i thought i was hallucinating about greg , and the motel clerk , and the things they said . daniel : and i did n't believe you . oh , baby , i 'm sorry . honey , honey , i am so sorry . [ scene_break ] ej : nicole , if we have n't made it abundantly clear , we have no interest in anything you may have to say . sami : actually , i wan na hear , 'cause i wan na -- ej : do n't let her do this to you , come on . sami : are you serious ? gabi : hey , what 're you doing here ? arianna : oh , the station was down a camera operator , so they called me in . do you know where the action is ? nicole : right over here . so is the truck ready to go live ? arianna : arnie , are you ready ? whenever you are . nicole : yep , yep , yep . you should n't have said that i did n't have the guts . because now i 'm gon na do this in front of your whole fan club . nicole : hey . brady : hey , what is this ? what 's going on ? nicole : brady , wow . now you 've just made this whole thing complete . you are not gon na wan na miss this .

[ clears throat ] i was thinking that since i have a rich husband who 's family is completely loaded ... philip : mm - hmm . melanie : and i 've always wanted to live in a big mansion with a pool and tennis courts . philip : you 're such a gold digger . look at you . melanie : look , i just wan na live in a little cottage with some vines on it , maybe a daisy , and a couple extra bedrooms . philip : just one daisy ? melanie : mm - hmm . philip : okay . i 'm not complaining , but what 's the extra bedroom for ? when max comes to visit ? melanie : uh ... that 's the other thing i wanted to talk to you about . i was thinking maybe the extra bedroom could ... be a nursery . [ scene_break ] chloe : i 'm so sorry . daniel : what have you got to be sorry about ? aw , baby . baby , look , look . i take back every rotten thing i said about philip . i thank god he was there for you , 'cause i sure as hell was n't . chloe : do you mean that ? you do n't hate philip ? daniel : [ scoffs ] no , i do n't hate the guy . chloe : [ sigh ] daniel : chloe ? what ? what 's going on ? chloe : well ... maybe now that you understand what was going on with me ... maybe you 'll understand what happened between philip and me . daniel : what does that mean ? chloe : i 've .... i feel as if i 've betrayed you . daniel : how ? chloe : i , um ... i - i just felt so alone , and ... when you said you did n't believe me , i thought it was because you and carly were having an affair . i 'm so sorry . [ sniffles ] daniel : no , do n't be sorry . chloe : i 'm not blameless in all of this . daniel : what ? no , no , vivian set you up . only you did n't know anything . and me , i was just being a selfish idiot . chloe : but i did things . daniel : no , shh . listen . you turned to philip because he believed in you when i did n't . and you told him all the ways i was letting you down , right ? right ? well , you know what ? i forgive you . can you forgive me ? okay . chloe : [ sniffles ] daniel : so , look ... baby , so the way i figure it we can keep feeling guilty , or we can move on . what 's it gon na be ? chloe : [ sigh ] [ scene_break ] ej : okay , you can stop this little scene right now . nicole : do you think this lip gloss is too shiny , or is it okay ? ej : what ? nicole : you know , ej , i knew that i wanted to do this in a big way , i just did n't know how . but then when you launched into this -- this nauseating paean of praise to yourself about you and your big family , then it came to me . i thought why not just do this right now ? your whole family 's here , right ? and by the way , is n't this the place where you tossed sydney 's bloody clothes into the river to convince sami that her baby was dead ? you see , i want all of your loved ones up close and personal when i tell all of salem what a monster you are . sami : look , i do n't care what she says , i am convinced that this is all because nicole is upset that ej 's representing you and bailed you out and everything . arianna : why ? because she thinks it makes it harder for her to get with brady ? nicole : wrong answer . brady : well , then what is -- what is the answer ? nicole : well , you 'll find out in a minute . tell the truck i 'm ready to go . [ scene_break ] philip : what 's wrong ? melanie : i threw you with the nursery part ? philip : um , yeah , kind of . melanie : look , i know we said we would backburner the idea of having a kid , but ... philip : uh - huh ? but ? you know , i just thought that we were gon na have a little bit of time to ourselves . you know , live life , and ... i mean , you have n't even finished nursing school yet . melanie : i - i - i 'm still not talking about now . i 'm not , it 's just , you know , finding daniel , and now he and chloe are gon na have a baby , just ... philip : mm - hmm . melanie : i do n't know , it just made me realize how great a good family could be . i 'm just saying maybe we could find a house that is kid - friendly for later . you seem upset . philip : oh , no , its that you just -- i 'm a little surprised . that 's all . and look , we can start looking for houses , and they can have as many rooms as you want . how about that ? melanie : really ? philip : mm .

[ scene_break ] melanie : [ humming ] arianna : hello , hello . wow , i thought we were just hanging out by the lake . melanie : yes , but i thought that a picnic would be fun . arianna : fun , hm . yep , not a whole lot of that in the salem city lock - up . or picnics . melanie : that is the idea to do something , you know , different than that . arianna : thank you . never take freedom for granted . melanie : right ? arianna : right . melanie : it 's gon na be okay . arianna : i wish i were as sure as you . melanie : hey , the police are gon na catch whoever mugged brady and the rest of the guys . arianna : yeah . unless they , like , just stop looking . melanie : they 're not gon na do that . arianna : no . okay , so tell me , why is there three set - ups ? who else is coming ? melanie : uh ... [ scene_break ] sami : you beg me to come down here , you have something important to tell me , you did n't say anything about ej being here . what is going on ? nicole : oh , do you wan na tell her , ej ? or shall i ? [ scene_break ] brady : so what did our little friend here tell you about today ? arianna : [ sigh ] she said it 'd be a great day to hang out by the lake . brady : no mention of me being here , huh ? arianna : nope , not a word . melanie : what ? brady : what were you thinking ? melanie : look , here 's what i was thinking . i was thinking that one of the lovely things you two have in common is a stubborn streak , and that it was gon na take somebody with a brain in her head to make you realize that you still love each other . do you remember last year ? you remember the horton cabin ? you remember who got you there ? how 'd that work out for you two ? brady : look , look . hey , this was sweet , all right . but this is none of your business . arianna : he 's right . melanie : i do n't care what you think , somebody had to do something . brady : well , not this , no . melanie : look , brady , if philip and i can get through all the garbage we 've gotten through , then anybody can . [ scene_break ] daniel : if i did n't know better , i 'd think you were keeping something from me . chloe : no , it 's nothing important . daniel : then why are you so upset ? chloe : i do n't know what you 're talking about . daniel : sure you do . philip : chloe ... we have to tell him the truth . [ scene_break ] sami : is this another one of her reindeer games ? ej : yeah . that 's exactly what it is . you should n't consider listening to her , she 's just going to feed you a load of lies . nicole : oh , no , no , no , no . i - i think this time is a little different . see , i predict that sami will believe every word i say . because not even you can talk your way out of this , huh ? you ca n't pull strings and make it all go away . sami : oh , my god . i know what this is about . [ scene_break ] philip : [ sigh ] i ... i found out ... chloe was pregnant . daniel : okay . philip : yeah , and see , melanie , she did n't mean for me to find out , but i did . and as soon as i found out , i rushed right over to tell her how happy i was for you guys . and that 's when she told me that you guys were trying to keep it a secret . daniel : i did n't have the right to expect melanie to keep something from her husband . philip : so we 're good ? daniel : mm . you know , what i do n't get is why the two of you looked like it was such a big deal . [ scene_break ] brady : you had no business meddling in our lives . arianna : that 's right . melanie : great , now you 're a united front . brady : look ... there are problems between us that you do n't understand . arianna : we 're not gon na get back together because you tricked us into being in the same place at the same time . melanie : okay , fine . you guys wan na leave ? take off . but first you have to look me in the eye and tell me you do n't love each other anymore . which one of you 's gon na go first ? [ scene_break ] philip : uh , you know , if it looked intense when you walked in , that 's my fault . 'cause i put chloe in a tough spot . i wanted her to cover for melanie , and she did n't wan na keep anything from you , so . daniel : hmm . well , i just do n't know why you 'd think i 'd be mad at melanie for repeating something that i really could n't keep quiet myself . chloe : yeah , you 're right . philip and i were just being silly , and i was being superstitious , you know , wanting to keep this a secret . because we just -- we found out so early , and this is a high - risk pregnancy , so . daniel : you know , you have every right to wan na keep it a secret . and i should 've told you that i told melanie . chloe : yeah , but it 's okay now . you know what ? i actually feel differently now . i 'm excited , i want people to know . so it 's not a problem anymore , right ? philip : [ claps ] well , congratulations , daniel . daniel : thank you . philip : congratulations . daniel : thank you , wow . philip : you know , i better get going before i cause any more trouble . chloe : [ nervous chuckle ] philip : i 'll talk to you guys later , okay ? [ sighs ] that baby has to be his . it has to be . chloe : so you 're really not upset with melanie ? daniel : she 's married to philip kiriakis ... not much i can do about that . chloe : what does that mean ? daniel : well , i know that he 's your old boyfriend and you still have a soft spot for him . but if i 'd known melanie was my daughter ... i would 've done everything i could to stop that marriage . [ scene_break ] ej : look , samantha , i do n't know what it is exactly that you think you know -- nicole : come on , ej , let the girl talk . sami : it 's about arianna , is n't it ? that you are defending her , that you paid for her bail . and you just ca n't stand it because you want everyone to think that rafe 's sister 's the one who committed all these muggings . and you know that because the victims are friends of my family or related to me , you think you can drag me down here and make up some stupid story that 's gon na make me turn against ej ? ej : that is exactly what she wants to happen . sami : [ scoffs ] nicole : look ... i 'm the one who tried to give arianna an alibi . ej : right , which conveniently did n't pan out , did it ? in fact , it took the police right to her door . nicole : what ? i do n't -- i - i -- sami : you know , you 're really unbelievable , okay ? unbelievable ! you just have a problem with everyone else being happy , is that it ? you ca n't stand it . nicole : whoa , wait a minute . are you that clueless that you do n't see what 's going on here ? do you really think that ej would rush down here and try and stop me from telling you what he did for arianna ? no , he is trying to stop me from telling you what he did all on his own . [ scene_break ] arianna : look , we never said that we did n't still care about each other , we do . i mean , it was actually a really hard decision to make . brady : we agreed that what we have , it 's just ... not enough . melanie : i know you want me to stay out of your lives and leave you guys alone . but unfortunately for you , it looks like i take after my mom . and i 'm not gon na stand for that . so will you please just talk to each other ? arianna : well , honey , this is not fair what you 're doing . melanie : no , what 's not fair is that you guys were about to get married , and then nicole shows up out of jail or wherever she came from and everything got messed up ! so who is it gon na hurt to talk to each other ? brady : your call . [ sighs ] arianna : okay . yeah , we can talk . yeah . melanie : sweet , cool . bad news , though , the lake is not really doing it for me anymore . so i 'm gon na let you guys do your thing , i 'm gon na head out . there are two turkey sandwiches in there , along with maggie 's divine potato salad , so you know , knock yourselves out . and i 'll see you later , okay ? [ clears throat ] arianna : you think she 's right ? you think we made a big mistake ? [ scene_break ] chloe : why are you suddenly turning against philip ? daniel : no , i 'm not turning against him . i just ... you know , he 's older than melanie , and that can throw off the balance of power in a relationship . and i would n't want him , you know , pushing her around . chloe : well , you 're older than i am and you do n't push me around . daniel : no , i do n't . but philip does . chloe : what are you talking about ? daniel : like right now . he wanted you to keep a secret from me . chloe : he thought he was protecting melanie . daniel : well , what 'd he think i was gon na do ? read her the riot act for telling him something that i probably should n't have told her myself ? chloe : oh , my god , this is all my fault . daniel : see , right there . right there -- and that 's the other thing that bothers me . why is it you 're always upset after you 've been talking to him ? chloe : i 'm not . daniel : you are . and look how philip 's handled this . he finds out that you 're gon na have a baby , he does n't keep it to himself and wait for you to go tell him the good news , you know what he does ? he gets in his car , in the middle of the day , and he comes to congratulate you . and then next thing you know , he 's trying to get you to keep something from me . chloe : it was just a little white lie . daniel : yeah , to him maybe . well , i hope he 's not tying my daughter up in knots the way he does you . chloe : the only reason i 'm tied up in knots right now is 'cause you wo n't let it go . daniel : i can do that . if you 'll do something for me . i just wish that you would put maybe a little distance between yourself and philip . [ scene_break ] sami : what is it , nicole ? 'cause i thought you had decided to chase after brady now , and that you were gon na leave me and ej alone . ej : it 's fine , let 's just get out of here . sami : no , in a minute . i wan na understand what 's going on . you think you have a chance with brady . but to do that , you have to make sure that arianna 's behind bars -- this is sort of how i figured it . so ej 's screwing that up for you , so now you 're gon na screw with us ? nicole : what is all this `` us `` talk ? is he reeling you in again ? wow , nicely done , elvis . ej : you 're exactly right , samantha . so why do n't we get out of her presence before she does anymore harm . sami : no , i wan na hear her say it . so what is it ? is this about brady ? or are you gon na try and do something to screw with my life again ? [ scene_break ] philip : hey . melanie : hi -- hey , what are you doing home ? philip : looking for you . melanie : why ? philip : in my fantasy , you were n't wearing this bathing suit . melanie : oh , yeah ? philip : mm , here . melanie : what ! philip : you like daisies , right ? melanie : yeah , i do . what did -- what -- i just get flowers for no reason ? philip : is n't it our five month anniversary or something ? melanie : mm . you 're setting the bar awfully high . i 'm gon na be expecting this treatment now for the next billion years we 're married . what , did i say something ? [ scene_break ] chloe : could we please not argue about philip ? daniel : so you 're not gon na do what i asked ? chloe : what ? keep my distance from him ? i do n't really see how that 's possible , considering he 's your daughter 's husband , for one thing . daniel : okay , okay , okay . so together , we go out as a couple ... but you avoid seeing him one - on - one . is that so difficult ? chloe : no , i guess not . but do n't you think that 's a little mean , just to suddenly blow him off ? he 's a good friend of mine . daniel : no , no , no , he 's not just a good friend , chloe . and you know damn well he 's more than that . chloe : what ? daniel : no , you guys were together before , right ? you were once a couple ? chloe : yes , but i do n't -- daniel : so does n't it occur to you that that might just make me feel , i do n't know , slightly uncomfortable ? chloe : come on , you have no reason to be jealous about -- daniel : this is n't a question of jealousy . no , you are with the guy all the time . now why is that ? why ? he is a married man , for god 's sake . not to mention he has a job . an important one , apparently . but yet , you know what , he has all the time in the world to come and see you . to congratulate you on a pregnancy that he 's not even supposed to know about . chloe : i ... i do n't know why you 're so mad . daniel : no ? all right , well , let me clue you in . chloe : wow . daniel : i was being a little disingenuous before . chloe : okay . daniel : i am jealous . [ scene_break ] brady : you know , i still look at you , and i still want you . i still love you very much . arianna : i love you . i did n't do what they said i did . brady : i know that .

[ phone rings ] nicole : i 'll tell you , but it has nothing to do with arianna and brady , it has everything to do -- sami : hey , hey , this is about my kids . i got ta take it . hey , grandma . nicole : talk about saved by the bell , huh ? well , that 's -- that 's only a temporary stay of execution . you know , i can tell sami at any time that you kidnapped sydney and put her through hell . ej : i 'm sure . as you have been operating so diligently . you 're well aware of the fact that an audiotape can not be admitted into evidence in a court of law . do you know why that is ? i 'll tell you . it is because they are very easily doctored . you see , what possible reason would i have to kidnap my own child ? whereas you ... on the other hand , have every reason to want to harm samantha and me . so you go ahead , play your tape . i will just say you fabricated it . and who do you think she will believe ? [ scene_break ] chloe : i did n't realize that my friendship with philip felt like a threat to you . daniel : what , you thought i 'd be thrilled about it ? you guys , and your little meetings at the brady pub or wherever ? then him coming over here today ? and you telling me that you confide in him all the time . chloe : not all the time . daniel : and yet , when i asked you just to keep a little distance with him , you think i 'm being unreasonable . and then , boom , you just shut me out . chloe : fine ! i do n't think you 're being unreasonable . i agree to it , okay ? i 'll avoid philip kiriakis like the plague . if he ever calls or stops by , god forbid , i 'll just tell him , `` philip , i 'm sorry , we 're not allowed to be friends because daniel feels excluded . `` daniel : you know what ? you know what , never mind . just forget it ! you do whatever the hell you wan na do , all right ? chloe : daniel , wait . daniel : mm . [ scene_break ] nicole : you 're just trying to intimidate me because you know i can deliver the goods . ej : nicole , if you really felt that tape would convince samantha , you would 've played it by now . you know the problem ? when you got out of prison , you should 've left salem . just packed up your bags and disappeared . you would 've been fine . but you had to come back here because you wanted to get even with me and you wanted to dig your talons into brady . well , you 've lost on both counts , you understand that , do n't you ? samantha and i are very , very happy . nicole : mm - hmm . ej : she despises you , and brady will too once i prove that you framed arianna . nicole : you 're all talk , you know that ? [ whispers ] all talk . ej : you ... you see young william over there ? well , he and i are getting along famously right now . nicole : mm - hmm . ej : and he 's come to see my father as a grandfather . now the girl with him , that is gabi hernandez . nicole : yeah , i know who she is . ej : she 's very grateful to me because i defended her sister . you see , we 're like a big happy family . nicole : you 're feeling very smug right now , are n't you , ej ? but you know what ? i do n't have to talk to sami to pull this off . so you know what , you and your big , happy family will be non - existent . and the clock starts now . [ scene_break ] philip : well , something happened today . something you might not be too crazy about . melanie : okay . philip : uh ... daniel kinda found out that i knew chloe was pregnant and that i heard from you . melanie : oh , that 's why i got flowers . daniel 's mad at me ? philip : no . no , he was great . i really do n't know what you could do to make that guy angry with you . melanie : oh . [ giggles ] whew . philip : [ chuckles ] yeah . i , um .... i had a little bit of explaining to do . i mean , i do n't -- it was n't a big deal , but you know he walked in and i had to explain why i was there . melanie : that 's not a big deal . philip : i know . i guess i could 've lied . melanie : no , that would 've been worse . philip : you think ? melanie : yeah ! like , you and i have done our fair share of lying , and it almost always absolutely never ends well , so . i 'm glad we just tell the truth now . philip : yeah , me too . [ scene_break ] arianna : still happening . brady : what 's still happening ? arianna : i mention nicole 's name , the walls go up . brady : you know what , you and mel , you think you have this whole thing figured out . i just do n't agree at all . i do n't think we 're apart because of nicole at all . arianna : okay , what 's your theory ? brady : i got a theory . but first of all , i wan na tell you that i think you 're crazy to be listening to that jerk , all right ? arianna : i assume you 're talking about ej , the guy that got me out of jail . the guy that paid for my bail . brady : i would 've paid your bail in a minute . all you had to do was ask me . arianna : we were broken up , brady . and ej has never doubted my innocence . brady : you know , ari , i never said i was perfect . i do n't know if you know this about me , but i start my day the same way every morning . i wake up , and i decide that i 'm going to be sober for one more day . because i 've hit rock bottom . i 've seen it . i 've been there . and so has nicole , and that 's why i ca n't just turn my back on her . i do n't think you understand people like nicole and me , all right . we 're not like you . you have innate strength . it 's very natural for you , you can handle drug dealers in prison , and your sister , and all your problems easily . you 're not like us . we ca n't do that . arianna : and you do n't see how strong i think you are for getting up everyday and making that decision ! you relate more to nicole than you do to me . and that is our problem . is n't it ? [ scene_break ] sami : so where 'd nicole go ? was n't she gon na wait around to tell me her big secret ? ej : oh , um ... will : what big secret ? sami : well , it 's certainly interesting . she claims that she has the goods on ej , and she wanted -- ej : obviously , she does n't . i have a good idea , why do n't we go see johnny and allie over at caroline 's ? sami : yeah , all right . ej : come on . nicole : wait , wait , wait . do n't leave now . wait , wait , wait , the show 's just about to start . ej : no , nicole , i think we 've humored you quite enough today . nicole : wait , nah , come on . stick around , listen . i just talked to my producer , and i told him that i have this incredible exclusive . and so he 's sending a crew right now . sami : what exclusive ? nicole : well , you and all of salem will find out . and i guarantee it will knock your socks off . [ scene_break ] arianna : yeah , i 'm on my way . thanks , frank . brady : you got ta go ? arianna : yeah . the station is taping a live segment on the pier . and frank , he 's obviously a believer in innocent until proven guilty , so -- unless he 's just that short of help . anyway , i 'm just very excited i still have my job , so i have to go . brady : that 's great . okay , but before you go , i wan na ask you if you wan na continue this conversation ... some other time ? or are we done ? arianna : i think we 're done , brady .

katie : um , i do n't know . you forresters do get married an awful lot . thorne : oh , no . that 's not me . that 's -- that 's my brother . katie : [ laughs ] thorne : look , i never thought i would get another chance like this , and i do n't want it to slip away . you know , words that never get said , time wasted because we thought there 'd be more , or something better . but waiting only makes sense when you know what you 're waiting for , when you see it . and i do , katie . i do . úmarry me . katie : i will admit that i have thought about a future with you . and what i would say if you asked me this question . thorne : i definitely imagined you would say yes a little faster . katie : [ chuckles ] i just -- i need you to hear me when i say that you do n't have to do this . i know you love will , and ... you do n't have to marry me just because it 's gon na look good in family court . ridge : i do n't want to nag about thorne not being here . he 's helping katie get ready for the custody battle with bill . eric : well , however it turns out , dollar bill -- is n't that what he calls himself ? ridge : yeah . eric : ... is gon na be hovering . ridge : he can hover all he wants , as long as it 's not around steffy or my wife . brooke : i 've been out of the office too long . bill : say you took a late lunch . brooke : what ? i 'm not gon na start lying to my husband . bill : well , is that really any different than -- how mad are you ? brooke : i know you 're feeling panicked about losing access to your boy . bill : yes . i 'm feeling so many things i ca n't say out loud . thorne : wow . i - i must be doing this all wrong . katie : no . no , you 're not . you 're not . thorne : no , really . because if i 'm making this proposal sound like a legal strategy , then , yes . i 'm just gon na close this . katie : oh ! thorne : look [ sighs ] katie , i love you . and i see my future with you and -- you and will . and i would want to be a family even if it was just the two of us . because we fit . we do n't finish each other 's sentences , but a lot of the time i know what you 're gon na say before you even say it . katie : heh ... thorne : i just kind of wish this was one of those times . katie : [ laughs ] [ sighs ] i - i ca n't guarantee that i 'm a sure bet , because sometimes i feel a little lost . thorne : you do ? katie : well , two marriages to bill , and [ sighs ] two divorces . i felt like i - i could n't be sure if i -- i knew people , especially people that i 'd known all my life , because they seemed to be able to hurt me so easily . thorne : you mean your sister . katie : yeah , well , i guess that 's all water under the bridge , as they say . it 's just sometimes those bridges get washed out . wyatt helped . he did . and -- and work helped . and ... and you 've helped . i mean , i never thought that i would go toe - to - toe with bill ever again , but here i am . i 'm doing it . and ... and i do n't think i would be able to if i did n't know that you had my back . thorne : well , i do . but you do n't need me . any judge will see that this is an open - and - shut case . katie : nothing is open - and - shut , not with bill . i -- i want things in my life . thorne : like what ? katie : [ sighs ] i want to realize all of my ambitions . i want to live up to the talent that i know i have , and the strength that i know i have . i want to see things and -- and -- and have work that excites me , and still be able to come home to a family life that feeds me . with my son and ... and with you . and maybe with the children that -- that we have . thorne : heh ... wait . did you just give me an answer and i missed it ? katie : i want things in my life , and one of those things is you . mm ! wait a minute . wait a minute . did i say yes ? because i meant to say yes . [ both laugh ] yes . thorne : okay . um ... can i ... katie : yes . thorne : ... put the ring on your finger ? katie : please . please put that ring on my finger . eric : so , what is this about ? ridge : uh , it 's just -- it 's a press release . it 's not very good . katie will fix it . quinn : is it about bill ? ridge : sure is . eric : well , where ? i mean , i do n't see bill 's name here anywhere . ridge : i know . he loves seeing his name in print , so we did n't put it in there . this is more a reminder for our suppliers and our clients , to show them that forrester is forrester again . spencer is out . the toothless dragon has been slain . brooke : i should go . bill : i understand something that i did n't before . and i 'm sorry that it took me crossing the line with you for me to understand it . but i -- [ sighs ] you would n't want to hear it . brooke : try me . bill : i know where everything went wrong in my life -- right when i was becoming the man i wanted to be . i mean , i had liam and wyatt working here by my side . katie and i had gotten to a place where she had accepted and come to peace with our parting , and i had my youngest son . i had will , who looked up to me , and he trusted me , and ... [ sighs ] i was happy . and i was in love . brooke : what happened ? bill : i lost you . brooke : [ sighs ] bill , i had my reasons . you were out of control . you were obsessed with that tower . getting it built no matter what , at the expense of others , especially liam . i could n't be around that . bill : i 'm not blaming you . but maybe if you 'd stayed , you could have steered me in the right direction . i would n't have spiraled the way that i did . but instead i -- i doubled down , went after steffy , ruined my relationship with liam . destroyed his marriage . and in the process , i ignored will . and now i 'm paying the price from that . brooke : i still have reservations about you . what could allow you to do the things that you 've done ? but you know what ? i really do think you 've done the worst . i think that you 've hit rock bottom . you 're a good father , bill . you love your son . you need to be there . you need to be in his life . i 'm not gon na give up on katie . i 'm gon na keep trying . bill : thank you , brooke . ridge : here . maybe you can look at these projections now that you 're back from what i assume was a late lunch . brooke : oh , i was n't at lunch . i had some errands . so what are these projections ? ridge : these are production goals for intimates . brooke : oh . well , i do n't need to look at that . eric : as for this decision , i just want to be sure thorne does n't feel slighted -- ridge : thorne ! okay . you know what ? would you feel better if i got him on the phone right now ? do you want to do that ? eric : yes , thank you . ridge : great . [ cellphone rings ] katie : [ giggles ] ohh . really ? thorne : it 's ridge . katie : mm . are we in trouble ? thorne : should we answer it ? katie : yeah , let 's answer it . thorne : okay . katie : [ chuckles ] thorne : hey , ridge . bill : i 'm here with dad , quinn , and brooke . you 're on speaker . thorne : it 's -- it 's ridge and dad , with quinn and brooke . katie : oh . thorne : should we tell them ? katie : yeah , let 's tell them . eric : uh , thorne , did we catch you in the middle of anything ? thorne : more like the beginning of something . i have some news . i asked katie to marry me . eric : [ chuckles ] ridge : ha , ha ! eric : thorne , that 's wonderful . brooke : [ chuckles ] oh , wow . that 's , uh -- that 's unexpected . thorne : is it ? brooke : yeah . [ sighs ] maybe just by me . congratulations . ridge : wow , this is great . you know all the times i 've said that you make bad decisions ? you actually made a good one ! ridge : uh ... come see me tomorrow , and get back to what you were doing . thorne : okay . they 're , uh -- they 're happy for us . katie : mm , good . thorne : and they said that we should get back to whatever we were doing . katie : oh . thorne : so ... katie : what were we doing , again ? oh , that 's right . bill : brooke did the best she could . justin : whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . katie did n't budge ? bill : ah , you never know with katie . you tell her something on a tuesday , and she hears it on a friday . justin : well , i mean , if she 's so dug in , i mean ... never mind . you already said no . mediation tends to soften people 's entrenched positions . bill : i 'm not doing any `` i give a little , you give a little . `` i gave all i 'm gon na give in the divorce . anyway , brooke 's gon na keep working on her . justin : she seems very loyal to you . bill : i 've managed to kill everybody 's affection for me . except for hers . maybe that 's why i lost my head . justin : no . lost your head with steffy . you and brooke were good together . bill : no , i mean today . justin : what happened today ? bill : i kissed brooke . katie : if you could live anywhere in the world , where would it be ? thorne : well , i can live anywhere . i do like this bed . katie : [ giggles ] so you see us staying here ? thorne : well , you would n't want to take will away from his friends , or take him out of school , right , put him in a new one ? katie : no , i wouldn't . thorne : right . katie : but i thought it might be a little soon to start laying down conditions . thorne : [ chuckles ] no , i like it here . i want to be close to my dad . that 's one of the reasons i came back . you know , i got , uh ... a little sick of being the son who had to go away to prove himself . katie : [ sighs ] you will never have to prove yourself to me . thorne : no ? katie : no . do you know what i 've always wanted in my prince charming ? i want someone who knows the difference between right and wrong . i want someone who treats everybody the same , no matter who they are . and most of all , i want someone who is willing to give me his trust . and who i feel safe giving my trust in return . thorne : that all sounds like me . katie : [ laughs ] thorne : well , i 'm no paragon . sometimes when i think i 'm right , i 'm actually not . but with this , you and me and will , i know this is right . katie : still , one parent getting married really does n't make much of a difference in the eyes of the law . i mean , bill looks really good on paper . thorne : well , we know what opponent we 're up against . good things are coming for us , katie . it 's already happening . justin : okay , brooke is your very best , if not your only shot at keeping this custody question out of a courtroom . so why in the hell would you risk the chance of her running home to ridge and/or katie and saying you put the moves on her ? bill : she 's not gon na do that . justin : yeah ? how do you know ? bill : because i told her it would never happen again . justin : mm - hmm . ridge : hey , logan , what 's the name of that -- that lady from the flower shop that we use ? brooke : oh , uh ... gosh . i do n't know . i think her name is nola ? let me check . ridge : no , that does n't sound right . i 'll -- i 'll ask pam . she 'll know what it is . i 'm , um ... just want to get a nice arrangement for katie and thorne , you know , to tell them how happy we are . brooke : do you think that 's wise ? ridge : what do you mean , wise ? what do you mean ? brooke : the relationship is still pretty new . ridge : well , they 've known each other for 25 years . brooke : right . so what 's the rush ? i mean , the whole thing seems so expedient . you know . ridge : i - i do n't know . brooke : oh , well , i think they 're doing this to make it look good for the custody battle . ridge : why are you being so cynical right now ? brooke : [ sighs ] there 's some things we just do n't agree on . ridge : we do n't agree that -- that bill mistreated his two grown sons , and now he 's doing the same thing to a little kid ? brooke : people do change . ridge : well , some people do . bill hasn't . this is katie 's son . and i did n't protect my daughter , but i got to take care of this little kid . brooke : will does n't need protection from his father . bill loves his son . ridge : yeah , and everything bill loves , he destroys , eventually . brooke : oh , my god . do you know how vindictive you sound ? ridge : see , i do n't want that . i do n't want to sound vindictive . i do n't know where that came from . oh , no . you know what ? i do know . maybe it comes from bill coercing my daughter into sleeping with him . or maybe it 's because he threw me out of a helicopter into the persian gulf and left me there to die . i know he probably did n't mean to do that . okay . no . you know what ? no . it 's not okay . why do n't you open your eyes and see who this person really is ? he sees any weakness , he 's gon na use you . come on . stay away from that guy . stop defending him .

[ scene_break ] elijah : your honor , if it pleases the court , i 'd like to be heard before you make your ruling , as some urgent new information has come to light since we 've adjourned . judge henson : five minutes . elijah : thank you , your honor . gregory evans just last week , against all medical and ethical standards , performed surgery on his own brother . it was during the surgery that he committed a grievous error , and his brother shaun is still comatose . this is the same dr. evans who assured the court he 's never lost a patient and was promising us that he could n't hurt matthew if given the chance to perform his surgery , as well . yet as of today , he 's virtually killed his own brother . i have corroboration , your honor . david : dude , little bro , if this is true , you and i talk before any slicing . matthew : there 's no point . i 'm already sunk . téa : your honor , there is no parallel between shaun evans ' case and my client 's . shaun evans had suffered from a gunshot wound . he 'd already been through one surgery , and he had developed a complication that none of the doctors attending him had fully detected . furthermore , the only reason dr. evans performed surgery upon his brother was that none of the trauma surgeons on site were qualified to do so . elijah : he still put his patient at risk and made a grave mistake , your honor . this is -- téa : the hospital is filing no charges against dr. evans . there is not one doctor that will back up what counsel is alleging . in any case , the circumstances are completely different and highly charged , nothing like the circumstances which surround the surgery matthew requires , which is a simple procedure which dr. evans routinely performs with great success . elijah : yet , counsel can not get around the simple facts of this case , your honor . shaun evans is not likely to recover because dr. gregory evans vastly overestimated his skills as a surgeon , and who 's to say he has n't done the same thing in matthew 's case ? [ scene_break ] rachel : you know , i trust you . greg : that 's a mistake . rachel : i do n't think so . and now it 's time for you to trust me . let 's hear it , greg , all of the rotten things that you have said to yourself since the surgery . tell me . greg : the decision to operate on shaun , it did n't have to be . rachel : there was a risk in waiting , too . greg : look , maybe i could 've gotten on the horn and phoned in some favors , got another surgeon here the next day . rachel : that 's a maybe . greg : [ sighs ] i did this to my family , rachel , because i had to be the hero . rachel : well , that 's no big , dark secret , but that 's pretty human . there 's nothing wrong with that . greg : maybe i should n't have ever gone in after the bullet fragment . maybe i went in too deep . rachel : again , more maybes . you ca n't do anything useful with those right now , unless it helps you see a way to change things for shaun . bottom line , you tried to make your brother whole and healthy , and it did n't work . it 's not like you did this on purpose . greg : what if i did ? [ scene_break ] john : sorry about that . you had a theory , brody ? brody : for a while , i thought nash 's parents might be part of it . john : why 's that ? jessica : well , no . they put nash up for adoption . they did n't even know him . brody : then you showed up with the baby . then they find out they had a grandchild attached to a wealthy family . jessica : they were really nice . you did n't tell me you suspected them . brody : i did n't want to upset you until i checked them out , completely . john : and ? brody : oh , they 're clean . john : all right , so you 're not going with revenge ? brody : uh - uh . jessica : well , if i 've come to the belief that jared and natalie did n't cause nash 's death , then i do n't understand why anyone would think differently . brody : let 's hope jared can give you some answers . john : right . get better . see you .

[ scene_break ] rachel : you know , i trust you . greg : that 's a mistake . rachel : i do n't think so . and now it 's time for you to trust me . let 's hear it , greg , all of the rotten things that you have said to yourself since the surgery . tell me . greg : the decision to operate on shaun , it did n't have to be . rachel : there was a risk in waiting , too . greg : look , maybe i could 've gotten on the horn and phoned in some favors , got another surgeon here the next day . rachel : that 's a maybe . greg : [ sighs ] i did this to my family , rachel , because i had to be the hero . rachel : well , that 's no big , dark secret , but that 's pretty human . there 's nothing wrong with that . greg : maybe i should n't have ever gone in after the bullet fragment . maybe i went in too deep . rachel : again , more maybes . you ca n't do anything useful with those right now , unless it helps you see a way to change things for shaun . bottom line , you tried to make your brother whole and healthy , and it did n't work . it 's not like you did this on purpose . greg : what if i did ? [ scene_break ] john : sorry about that . you had a theory , brody ? brody : for a while , i thought nash 's parents might be part of it . john : why 's that ? jessica : well , no . they put nash up for adoption . they did n't even know him . brody : then you showed up with the baby . then they find out they had a grandchild attached to a wealthy family . jessica : they were really nice . you did n't tell me you suspected them . brody : i did n't want to upset you until i checked them out , completely . john : and ? brody : oh , they 're clean . john : all right , so you 're not going with revenge ? brody : uh - uh . jessica : well , if i 've come to the belief that jared and natalie did n't cause nash 's death , then i do n't understand why anyone would think differently . brody : let 's hope jared can give you some answers . john : right . get better . see you .

you know , speaking of `` controlling , `` hey , why do n't you let theresa decide for herself ? kimberly : she made a decision . she decided she needs the warmth and the love of her own family . and shane and i are willing -- brady : you do n't think tate needs the support of his father ? i do n't plan on being a deadbeat dad . i 'm going to raise my son ! kimberly : will you use your head , brady ? you run an international corporation . realistically , how much time do you really think you have to spend with your son ? brady : i will make time . i do n't like you questioning my commitment to my son . this matter 's between your daughter and me . you butt the hell out . daphne : paige would be really unhappy to see either one of you , right now . eve : well you know what , that 's not your call . i 'm her mother , and i -- daphne : slept with her boyfriend . i mean , really ? jj : you know what , daphne , please , will you just tell me where she is ? okay , i really need to try to make things right . daphne : how are you possibly gon na do that , jj ? if she ever wants to see you again , i 'm sure she 'll let you know . jj : you know what , daphne , if you do n't tell me where she is , i 'm gon na go across the street , and knock on your parents ' door , and tell them that you 're dating a dude with two kids , that 's already been divorced , and he 's only 21 . daphne : you would n't dare . jj : i will if you do n't help me . daphne : she thought you had an appointment , so she went to your place to get some of her things . eve : oh . jj : eve , stop . thank you , and please do n't tell paige that we 're on our way . maxine : i 'll come back later . jennifer : paige , honey . when i saw your mom and jj together , it ... it made me sick . and i was so angry and disappointed in him . because i could n't understand how he could hurt you that way . but the truth is , after ... after he explained everything to me and ... how it happened . he has never regretted anything more in his life . he loves you so much . and that 's how he proved it , i saw that . how much he loved you , honey . paige : jj always knows the right things to say to get people on his side . no , that is not true . he meant it . there 's no doubt in my mind he was devastated when he thought he lost you . and so were you , honey . and that 's why i felt partly responsible . paige : why ? jennifer : because your mom and i , we have this horrible history . and i feel like you and jj have suffered because of that . and i feel like if i could have just made peace with her somehow , she would have left the two of you alone . paige : and then jj and i would 've been together and he never would have cheated on me ? please . jennifer : no , that 's not what i 'm saying . i 'm just trying to explain that after he confessed all of this , i felt so helpless because this is something i should have prevented , and i did n't . so i did the one thing that i thought would help , but it really did n't help at all . it ended up being the worst possible thing i could 've done . paige : wait , what did you do ? jennifer : i went to your mom , and i blackmailed her . kate : your name is n't even on the door yet , and you 're threatening to fire me . justin : i do n't like this arrangement any more than you do , but i am going to be professional . and if you ca n't be , i already have the names of three people who can walk right in here and take over tomorrow . kate : ah , really ? justin : mm - hmm . kate : well i know who they are , and none of them can do what i do . justin : oh , you 're right . i bet it would take them twice as long to lose our best designer and best distributor . you have a unique talent , kate . no one can alienate people quite like you . kate : [ scoffs ] lucas : sorry about that . adrienne : oh , that 's okay . the server has n't come yet . and i 've been poring over the menu . lucas : oh , yeah ? what , you do n't know what you want ? adrienne : um ... actually , i 've been keeping a low profile . justin just came through . apparently he did n't go back to dubai after all . lucas : did he see you ? adrienne : no , no . he was too busy chasing after your mother . kate : well , obviously , you are not familiar with this industry . otherwise you would know that i have an excellent track record in this business . so , i 'm not going to listen to any of your snide little comments . i 'm not going to listen to any advice that you think you need to give me . justin : okay , if you 'd just be quiet for just a moment , all right . kate : [ laughs ] justin : and listen to me -- kate : hi , lucas . lucas : what 's going on here ? melanie : oh , i was -- i was thinking about what it was like growing up . oh , and uh ... how with trent it was , it was just about surviving and getting by . and i did n't think i would ever know what it was like to have a real family . and then i found out you and carly were my parents ... and that you were my grandma ... and i know what love is . maggie : oh , honey . melanie : and that love has made me want to be a better person . and i 'm so glad i got a second chance . daniel : yeah , me too . maggie : we all are , darling . i mean , you know that . come on , where is all this coming from ? melanie : i know exactly how important family is because i know what it was like to live without you two . and it 's made me realize i know exactly what i have to do . kimberly : hey , buddy . i 'm just trying to protect my grandson and my daughter , and if theresa feels it 's in both their best interest to go home , who are you ? brady : she does n't feel that way . kimberly : who ha -- brady : do n't you realize the only reason she 's considering moving back to california is that she wants to use the threat to get me to dump melanie . kimberly : oh ? is this true ? theresa : no , of course not . but you know what , brady , listen . i owe melanie everything , okay ? and i have thanked her so many times . listen , i am putting tate first , okay . how about you ? kimberly : ha -- okay , okay . honey , it 's okay . brady , you got ta go . i think you got ta go -- take this worthless document with you . and listen , for future reference , my daughter is not going to sign anything unless our lawyer looks over every single detail first . brady : fine . but if you think you 're gon na take my son away from me , it 's never gon na happen . eve : [ sighs ] she 's not here . either daphne was wrong or paige is already gone . jj : damn it , all right . eve : not so fast ! jj : what now , eve ? eve : well , here we are , jj . it 's where this whole mess started , and where it ended . jj : i do n't want to talk about this anymore -- eve : of course you do n't . you just walk away . knew you were n't man enough to face your mistakes . jj : all right , you know what ? you think i have n't faced my mistakes ? i had to look paige in the eye and see how hurt she was . and betrayed . i broke her heart . and now i 'll never be able to forgive myself . eve : good . you should n't . because if you had listened to me from the beginning , i would still have my daughter . jennifer : paige , you and jj wanted to get back together . but jj knew that your mother would never allow it . so that is when i went to her ... and i told her if she did n't leave the two of you alone , that i would ... paige : you 'd tell me that she slept with my boyfriend . jennifer : yeah . and that 's when you saw us fighting , and -- and -- that 's when i almost told you myself . paige : but you did n't . because my mom caved , right ? [ laughs softly ] it all makes sense now . because the next day jj did a complete 180 . instead of pushing me away like he had been for months , he said things were suddenly over with `` roxanne `` and that he wanted me back . just when i was starting to get over him . god , how could you do this to me ? jennifer : honey , i thought that you and jj were still in love . and that if you could give it a try without your mother 's interference -- paige : oh , and you think your interference was some kind of good deed ? if things had gone your way , i would 've been living a horrible lie for the rest of my life . justin : i think you know what 's going on . my wife did n't come home last night . so let me take a wild guess and say she spent the night with you . adrienne : you said you were going to dubai to be with elsa . justin : i said i was going to dubai for work . lucas : then why are you here ? kate : oh , if you must know , the reason that justin did n't go to dubai is because he 's coming to work for me . jennifer : paige , i know that i made a mistake . i knew it right away . but there was no undoing it because you and jj were already back together . and all i wanted was for you to be spared the hurt that you 're feeling right now . paige : oh , no . do n't act like you did something noble . like you gave a damn about my flings . the only thing you cared about was enabling your lying son . you sacrificed me so that jj could get what he wanted . jennifer : no , paige , no . i wanted to help you . i - i did , and i know that i made things worse , and i am so , so sorry . paige : [ laughs softly ] funny . i always thought jj was so lucky to have a mother like you . compared to my own mom , you always seemed so ... together and responsible and ... upstanding . but now i see , the two of you really are n't that different at all . eve : yeah , i knew from the beginning that you were going to end up hurting my daughter . because i saw how selfish you were , jj . so selfish that you kept pursuing paige even after you slept with her mother . jj : all right , what do you call yourself , eve ? if you had n't kept trying to come between us -- eve : none of this would have happened ? really ? are you kidding me ? if it were n't me it 'd be somebody else . not only are n't you man enough to own up to what you did , you had to run to mommy to- to get her to , you know , blackmail me into helping you win paige back . i told jennifer that was a stupid idea , but no , the two of you just insisted that it was the right thing to do . how do you feel about it now , jj , hmm ? 'cause you know that paige never would have been that devastated if you had n't tried to win her back to make her fall in love with you again . jj : i was just trying to make her happy . eve : but instead , you destroyed her . and you took from me the one ... the only thing that i 've ever cared about in this whole world . [ deep inhale ] but there is one ... one consolation in all this , and that is ... [ laughs softly ] i know that she 's never gon na end up with you . jj : well , you know what , that 's where you 're wrong . 'cause i am going to get her back , eve . theresa : look , i really , really appreciate you sticking up for me . kimberly : yeah . theresa : okay ? kimberly : yeah . theresa : but i mean , come on , you saw how tense brady got when you were here , and ... look , i can handle him . and besides , you know what , it 's gon na cost a fortune for you to change your flight last minute . and dad ca n't be alone . kimberly : right . theresa : i mean , you said so yourself . he has n't been 100 % since his surgery , and -- kimberly : i get it , you want me to go home , you want me to go home . [ humming ] i get it . i get it . until you need me again , then i will be here on a moment 's notice . theresa : thanks . kimberly : okay . oh , what we need to do in the meantime , we need to get all our legal ducks in a row so you can come home whenever you want . theresa : well , i appreciate it . kimberly : yeah ? all right . all right , so i got ta get moving and ... you know , i wish that i had seen paige and eve while i was here . the funny thing -- they did n't return any of my phone calls . theresa : oh , god , how unlike them . kimberly : [ laughs ] now , now , now , now . i 'm gon na make sure that they 're here to support you while i 'm gone , all right ? theresa : okay , mom , look i 'll be fine . i promise . come here . i just -- i ca n't thank you enough for all of your help . maggie : what do you mean , you know what you have to do ? daniel : does this have something to do with brady and theresa ? [ knock on door ] melanie : hi . brady : hi . can we uh , can we talk ? melanie : yeah . maggie : okay . i 'll get go -- go get parker ready . daniel : we 'll finish this conversation . melanie : what 's wrong ? brady : um ... melanie , things went really , really badly with theresa . melanie : [ sighs ] i 'm sorry . i promise you , though , everything 's going to be okay . adrienne : you 've been working on that dubai deal for almost a year . i ca n't believe you 'd give that up to work for kate . hocking lipstick . kate : [ scoffs ] justin : i wo n't only be working for mad world . and as far as the situation with kate -- kate : i thought justin would be the perfect person to assume some of lucas 's old responsibilities . adrienne : so you asked justin to take lucas 's job ? lucas : that 's not what 's going on here . kate : oh , really ? you do n't believe that we 're working together ? lucas : no , i believe that . i believe you 're working together , but ... obviously neither of you are happy about it , so , uh , stop trying to pretend it was your idea . adrienne : [ gasps ] victor . lucas : yeah . of course . eve : you are a sick , delusional idiot ! paige is never gon na take you back . she not a -- she 's never gon na forgive you for what you did to her . jj : yeah , maybe not . but i 've got to try . and do n't forget , i still have proof that you tried to frame me for dealing drugs . so if you do anything to stop me , i will turn over the evidence to the police . eve : mm , you are a sorry excuse for a human being . you 're subhuman . i mean , why do you have to try , jj ? my god , if you really loved paige , you would set her free . you 'd stay away from her and let her move on with her life . jj : is that what you 're going to do ? eve : i 'm her mother . jj : you 're the worst mother she could possibly ask for . [ slap ] jj : [ clears throat ] see what i mean ? eve : [ exhales ] daniel : you know and this situation with brady , i know how much she loves him . and - and it 's just gotten ... [ both sigh ] daniel : i do n't know , it 's just complex , obviously . maggie : what do you think melanie 's planning to do ? daniel : i do n't know . i 'm sure she 'll tell us when she 's ready . maggie : mm . but she 's so upset . i mean , she and brady have n't been together that long and this baby ... oh , it 's going to be a huge test in their relationship . daniel : yeah , but they 've friends for a very long time . and i think , you know what , i think they 're gon na be strong enough to get through this . maggie : i hope you 're right . it 's just that whenever theresa 's involved , i ca n't help but worry . [ laughs softly ] anne : have you completely lost it ? you gave up enough money to keep us -- i mean you -- in manolo blahniks for a lifetime ! you could have bought that gorgeous house i found down on university parkway -- theresa : i do n't want to live on university parkway , anne . anne : oh , no of course not . what was i thinking ? why would you want to live in a million dollar mansion when you could cozy up in a cramped little apartment that overlooks a parking lot and gets no light ? theresa : listen . the point is , if i sign on that dotted line i still would n't be getting what i want . anne : and what do you want , theresa ? theresa : well , i just think that it would be easier to raise my child alongside brady if , you know , melanie , was n't around . anne : uh - huh . do n't you mean easier to get brady back ? theresa : well , is n't that what 's best for tate ? you know , to have his parents together ? anne : yes , well , in an ideal world , yes , of course . that 's what 's best , right ? two adoring parents , no custody battles , right ? just love and harmony and ai n't life perfect . but i 'll tell you something , unless you 're planning another little incident , you know , like with a fireplace poker ... i do n't see melanie going anywhere any time soon . melanie : well , i know you had custody papers drawn up last night . i thought the terms were fair . did she not ? brady : she pretty much flipped out . she and her mom . melanie : she 's still threatening to move to california unless i 'm out of the picture . she said she did n't mean to give that impression . melanie : oh , what impression did she mean to give ? brady : i do n't -- you know what , i do n't care . it does n't matter . it does n't matter because she does n't get to dictate how i live my life . and i do n't want to live my life without you . melanie : do you want to live your life without your son ? parker : [ airplane noises ] daniel : hey , look out . maggie : whoa ! [ laughter ] maggie : oh , i hate that so many people i love are going through such a difficult time . daniel : yeah . have you -- have you talked to jennifer ? maggie : she 's in a terrible state . she blames herself for what happened to paige . daniel : yeah , i just wish there was something i could 've done but , i ... maggie : you know what ? how did you find out the truth ? daniel : well , at first , paige thought eve slept with ... with me . maggie : oh . daniel : only because my jacket was at the apartment . maggie : ah , the jacket that jj borrowed . hmm . daniel : yeah , and i tried . i tried to get jennifer and jj to tell paige the truth , but it had gotten so far out of hand by then it ... i do n't know . i just hope it has n't gotten any worse . oh , my goodness ! you 're a wild man , on the loose . parker : [ giggling ] maxine : i 'll get right on this . you want to talk about it ? jennifer : no . because you 're going to try to make me feel better , and i 'd rather sit here and just beat myself up about it a little bit more . maxine : do n't do that , jen . you 're a good person and a wonderful mom . be kind to yourself , okay ? jennifer : [ sighs ] maybe i should call jj . [ door opens , slams ] paige : i thought i saw you drop this . jj : yeah , yeah . i guess i did . [ chuckles ] paige : [ chuckles ] jj : thank you . lucas : victor 's got a great sense of humor , does n't he ? adrienne : ha , since when ? lucas : he thinks you 'll do anything to destroy me , right ? right , i feel exactly the same way . mad world is going down . there 's nothing you can do about it . excuse us , we 're gon na go have a nice breakfast , alone . kate : [ scoffs ] oh , god ... justin : you really need to stop telling people i work for you . kate : oh . as long as you do n't tell people that i do work for you . because as far as i 'm concerned , i do n't . justin : [ sighs ] anne : you look too happy . theresa : well , of course i 'm happy . anne , i am the mother of the sweetest little boy in the whole wide world . anne : uh - huh . yeah , but you 're up to something that is n't the least bit sweet . or sensible , or even moral . am i getting warm ? theresa : well , let 's just say i gave melanie something to think about . and now , the proverbial ball is in her court . whenever she decides , i 'll be ready . brady : i 'm not going to be separated from my son , or from you . and we 'll figure out a way to make this thing work . melanie : no , brady . come on , theresa 's was willing to kill somebody to marry you . she 's not going to back down from this . and you heard aiden . he does n't think you 'll get custody . brady : melanie , there -- there 's a way -- we could -- melanie : i 'm sorry , no , brady , i 'm sorry . there 's only one way to solve this so that -- so that your son does n't suffer . theresa 's always going to use him as a weapon against you unless i take myself out of this situation and that 's what i 'm going to do . brady : what ? melanie : for your sake and your son 's . i 'm going to leave salem today . | brady apologized to theresa . he wanted to settle things right away . he gave her a custody agreement . eve went to see jj . paige went to see jennifer . eve went to see jj to look for paige . eve and jj argued over paige . paige confronted jennifer about eve and jj . paige wanted to know why jennifer would allow jj to be with her knowing what he did . jennifer took the blame for jj being back with paige . justin and kate talked about him being her boss . brady wanted theresa to sign the agreement or else , but kimberly told her not to . eve and jj argued over paige . jennifer tried to justify why she wanted jj and paige back together . when maxine interrupted them , paige got a dig in that jj keeps secrets like his mother . justin wanted kate to listen to him or she would be fired . kimberly and brady argued over the agreement . daphne told eve and jj that paige went to eve 's place . they both went to the apartment . jennifer told paige what happened after she caught jj and eve together . jennifer took responsibility for jj 's deceit . jennifer told paige that she blackmailed eve . | <s>[INST] kate : good morning . i just wanted to stop by on my way to the office to apologize for my behavior last night . i was ... stunned . justin : that makes two of us . kate : i do n't know what gave victor the ridiculous notion that the two of us could work together . justin : well , technically , we wo n't be working together . i am your supervisor . kate : [ scoffs ] whatever . but i think as long as we keep a united front , we 'll be able to talk victor out of this . justin : no , no , no . victor 's not changing his mind . and besides , i did n't stay up all night reading about mascara for nothing . kate : [ laughs ] are you really gon na let him bully you into this ? oh , or is this actually about lucas and adrienne ? lucas : [ sighs ] well , i am so glad that you spent the night . adrienne : me , too . lucas : are you sure about that ? adrienne : mm , of course . i ca n't help feeling a little guilty . lucas : justin is with his mistress in dubai . do you think he 's feeling guilty right now ? i 'm sorry , come here . [ laughter ] melanie : hi , buddy . hey , come here . oh , i did n't know i fell asleep . daniel : sorry we woke you up . melanie : do n't be sorry . this is exactly what i needed today . hi , buddy . waking me up , you sneaking in here , waking me up ? [ knock on door ] theresa : hello . brady : maxine said you 'll be released soon . theresa : yeah , in about an hour . wish tate could come home with me . brady : i just saw him . he looks great . doctor said he 'll probably be home in two days . listen , um ... i wanted to apologize to you about last night . i was out of line . theresa : well , you were upset . i want tate . you want tate . we both just want him to be happy , right ? [ zips bag ] brady : yeah , and i realize i did n't come across very calm , or very reasonable . and like you said , we both just want what 's best for tate . that 's why i think it 'd be better if we just settle this ... whole thing today . theresa : today ? how is that even possible ? brady : theresa , this is the framework for a custody agreement . i think you 'll find it very fair . jj : okay , i just went to paige 's dorm , and she was n't there . and nobody 's seen her . god , if something 's happened to her , i ... jennifer : honey , i 'm sure she 's fine . jj : but i texted her like a hundred times last night . if she 'd just let me know that she 's okay ... jennifer : well , i think ... maybe you just need to give her some time , okay ? jj : i know . [ knock on door ] jj : mom , i 'm sorry i 've got ta go . [ knock on door ] jennifer : yes ? paige . jj : what the hell do you want ? eve : i 'm looking for my daughter ! jj : she 's not here . get out of my house ! eve : did you find her ? last night i -- do you know where she is ? did you talk to her , jj ? jj : i did . eve : wait , wait , wait . if you tried to make this all my fault , jj , i swear to you -- jj : i was completely honest with her , eve . eve : oh , really ? well that 's new for you . how did that strategy work out for you , huh ? jj : she said that she wanted me out of her life for good . i really hope you 're happy about that . 'cause you finally got exactly what you 've been wanting . jennifer : uh , paige , come in , please . how are you ? we have been so worried about you . paige : oh , yeah ? where was this worry when you were helping my mom and jj cover up their sick and disgusting affair ? jennifer : i made a terrible mistake . paige : you must have known about my mom and jj for months . when i saw you arguing with her at the square , i could tell that you were hiding something from me . jennifer : yes , i was . that was the day that i found out that your mom and jj were sl -- paige : how ? hmm ? how did you find out ? jennifer : i walked in on them , together . paige : oh , my god ... jennifer : paige , listen to me , honey . paige : why did n't you say anything ? i mean , i know jj is your son but , why would you let him keep a secret like that from me ? why would you let him pull me back in when i was trying so hard to get over him ? jennifer : it was my fault , yes . you and jj getting back together after everything that happened , it was my idea . adrienne : [ laughs ] oh , no ! lucas : oh , that was a good breakfast , too ! oh , no , i guess i 'll have to buy you breakfast , now wo n't i ? adrienne : no , you have an early day . lucas : yeah , i do . but when you 're the boss you know , you get to make your own schedule . adrienne : oh . lucas : and i 'm not ready to turn myself away from you yet . kate : victor knew that you would never turn down the job once you found out that lucas was your chief competitor . i ca n't believe that you let him manipulate you like that . justin : so , i should let you be the one to manipulate me ? kate : i 'm trying to look out for the two of us , justin . justin : gee , thanks . but i 've accepted the situation for what it is . and i suggest you do the same . start focusing on doing your job rather than just talking about it . kate : [ scoffs ] excuse me ? justin : well , you already have two strikes against you . one more screw up , and uh , i think you can figure out what happens next . i was just looking at the projected sales for this quarter and i just do n't think that we should launch a new product in this crowded market . [ scoffs ] damn it ! brady : as you can see , theresa , there 's nothing limiting your parental rights . and i 'm willing to be extremely generous in terms of financial support . not only for tate , but also for you . theresa : whoa . you were n't kidding . brady : all you got ta do is sign it , initial the highlighted areas , and we 'll put this issue to rest . theresa : wait , wait , wait . what ? what is this ? it says i ca n't live anywhere besides salem ? you and i are gon na raise tate here . but i 'm gon na put you up in a comfortable home , everything you need . theresa : what ? but brady ... you know that i 'm thinking about moving back to california to be near my parents . brady : theresa , come on . the only reason you 're holding that over my head is because you want melanie gone . theresa : what , brady -- brady : that is not gon na happen . so my suggestion to you is you take this very limited time offer , because it 's the best you 're gon na get . kimberly : no , no , no ! do n't do it , do n't do it . no , theresa , do n't do it , do n't sign a damn thing . eve : you only have yourself to blame here , jj . yeah , it 's your fault that paige found out . jj : my fault ? eve : oh , yeah . if you had n't tried to entrap me she never would overheard you in the next room ... jj : are you kidding me ? eve : blabbing about absolutely everything ! jj : you tried to frame me and get me sent to jail . if you would have stayed away like you promised , none of this would have ever happened . eve : you 're blaming me for this ? [ knock at door ] eve : [ scoffing ] daphne : paige wanted me to give you your stuff back . i can see that you 're busy . jj : no . even i -- daphne : none of my business . jj : wait , daphne . do you know where paige is ? eve : if you know where my daughter is you have to tell me , please , please . paige : it was your idea ? why would you -- jennifer : paige , i knew what jj had done was wrong . very wrong . paige : really ? jennifer : but i also knew how miserable the two of you were apart . he loves you so much , and you love him . you told me so . paige : yeah , well i might have told you something a little different if i knew the whole story . jennifer : no , paige , that 's why i want to explain to you -- maxine : paige ! happy birthday , girl . paige : thanks . maxine : how was your party ? sorry i did n't make it . i had a double shift . jennifer : uh , maxine -- maxine : jj worked very hard to keep it a surprise . that boy sure knows how to keep a secret . paige : he sure does . he must 've learned it from his mother . lucas : you know what , i think i 'm gon na call my work , tell them i 'll be late . adrienne : okay . lucas : you mind ordering me something ? adrienne : oh , sure . of course . lucas : i trust you . adrienne : oh . [ laughs ] that 's your first mistake . justin : kate ! kate : [ scoffs ] justin : kate ! kate , stop ! you 're being ridiculous . kate : if you think i 'm going to listen to anything that you have to say , you 're crazy . justin : well , you damn well better . or you 're gon na find yourself without a job . maggie : well , parker , if you left your bear at your mom 's , i 'm sure we can get it tomorrow . daniel : or ... today ! right there ! oh ! maggie : yay ! daniel : found it . you found it . oh , my gosh . daniel : melanie , did you ... say ... melanie : dad ? yeah . um ... so if daniel 's your son -- maggie : that would make you my granddaughter . melanie : oh , my goodness . is this for me ? is this us ? this is fantastic , i 'm gon na frame it . parker : i 'll make another one . melanie : another one ? awesome ! oh , oh . daniel : do n't forget we 're going to the park soon , okay ? parker : okay . daniel : go ahead . [ laughter ] melanie : this is just -- the details , it 's exquisite . daniel : oh yeah , look at that . eyelashes ... melanie : [ giggles ] maggie : you want to go with us ? melanie : um ... i 'm actually -- i 'm gon na wait for brady . he 's supposed to stop by , but i need to tell you guys something before you go . daniel : sounds serious . melanie : it is . kimberly : you want her to hurry up and sign the `` special limited time offer . `` a lawyer has not even looked at that document , brady . brady : kimberly ... [ clears throat ] why do n't you take a look at it ? okay , you 'll find it 's extremely fair . theresa : well , you know , mom , brady is being very generous with his financial support , and i do n't really have a problem with the custody terms . it 's just that i have to stay in salem . kimberly : forever ? no . no , no , no . it 's not gon na happen , honey . no , no , no . you 're not brady 's prisoner , and you do n't have to sign a document that 's gon na limit your choices for your entire life . brady : theresa and i both want to be full - time parents to tate . i do n't want to take him away from her , and i do n't think she wants to take him away from me . but my place of business is here , in salem . i ca n't just move to l.a . kimberly : oh , oh , oh . wait a minute . wait a minute . i see , theresa 's the one that 's supposed to make all the sacrifices , and you , mr . generosity , you call it generous to just throw money at her to get your way . i ca n't believe john black 's son would be such a controlling jerk . brady : controlling ? you know , speaking of `` controlling , `` hey , why do n't you let theresa decide for herself ? kimberly : she made a decision . she decided she needs the warmth and the love of her own family . and shane and i are willing -- brady : you do n't think tate needs the support of his father ? i do n't plan on being a deadbeat dad . i 'm going to raise my son ! kimberly : will you use your head , brady ? you run an international corporation . realistically , how much time do you really think you have to spend with your son ? brady : i will make time . i do n't like you questioning my commitment to my son . this matter 's between your daughter and me . you butt the hell out . daphne : paige would be really unhappy to see either one of you , right now . eve : well you know what , that 's not your call . i 'm her mother , and i -- daphne : slept with her boyfriend . i mean , really ? jj : you know what , daphne , please , will you just tell me where she is ? okay , i really need to try to make things right . daphne : how are you possibly gon na do that , jj ? if she ever wants to see you again , i 'm sure she 'll let you know . jj : you know what , daphne , if you do n't tell me where she is , i 'm gon na go across the street , and knock on your parents ' door , and tell them that you 're dating a dude with two kids , that 's already been divorced , and he 's only 21 . daphne : you would n't dare . jj : i will if you do n't help me . daphne : she thought you had an appointment , so she went to your place to get some of her things . eve : oh . jj : eve , stop . thank you , and please do n't tell paige that we 're on our way . maxine : i 'll come back later . jennifer : paige , honey . when i saw your mom and jj together , it ... it made me sick . and i was so angry and disappointed in him . because i could n't understand how he could hurt you that way . but the truth is , after ... after he explained everything to me and ... how it happened . he has never regretted anything more in his life . he loves you so much . and that 's how he proved it , i saw that . how much he loved you , honey . paige : jj always knows the right things to say to get people on his side . no , that is not true . he meant it . there 's no doubt in my mind he was devastated when he thought he lost you . and so were you , honey . and that 's why i felt partly responsible . paige : why ? jennifer : because your mom and i , we have this horrible history . and i feel like you and jj have suffered because of that . and i feel like if i could have just made peace with her somehow , she would have left the two of you alone . paige : and then jj and i would 've been together and he never would have cheated on me ? please . jennifer : no , that 's not what i 'm saying . i 'm just trying to explain that after he confessed all of this , i felt so helpless because this is something i should have prevented , and i did n't . so i did the one thing that i thought would help , but it really did n't help at all . it ended up being the worst possible thing i could 've done . paige : wait , what did you do ? jennifer : i went to your mom , and i blackmailed her . kate : your name is n't even on the door yet , and you 're threatening to fire me . justin : i do n't like this arrangement any more than you do , but i am going to be professional . and if you ca n't be , i already have the names of three people who can walk right in here and take over tomorrow . kate : ah , really ? justin : mm - hmm . kate : well i know who they are , and none of them can do what i do . justin : oh , you 're right . i bet it would take them twice as long to lose our best designer and best distributor . you have a unique talent , kate . no one can alienate people quite like you . kate : [ scoffs ] lucas : sorry about that . adrienne : oh , that 's okay . the server has n't come yet . and i 've been poring over the menu . lucas : oh , yeah ? what , you do n't know what you want ? adrienne : um ... actually , i 've been keeping a low profile . justin just came through . apparently he did n't go back to dubai after all . lucas : did he see you ? adrienne : no , no . he was too busy chasing after your mother . kate : well , obviously , you are not familiar with this industry . otherwise you would know that i have an excellent track record in this business . so , i 'm not going to listen to any of your snide little comments . i 'm not going to listen to any advice that you think you need to give me . justin : okay , if you 'd just be quiet for just a moment , all right . kate : [ laughs ] justin : and listen to me -- kate : hi , lucas . lucas : what 's going on here ? melanie : oh , i was -- i was thinking about what it was like growing up . oh , and uh ... how with trent it was , it was just about surviving and getting by . and i did n't think i would ever know what it was like to have a real family . and then i found out you and carly were my parents ... and that you were my grandma ... and i know what love is . maggie : oh , honey . melanie : and that love has made me want to be a better person . and i 'm so glad i got a second chance . daniel : yeah , me too . maggie : we all are , darling . i mean , you know that . come on , where is all this coming from ? melanie : i know exactly how important family is because i know what it was like to live without you two . and it 's made me realize i know exactly what i have to do . kimberly : hey , buddy . i 'm just trying to protect my grandson and my daughter , and if theresa feels it 's in both their best interest to go home , who are you ? brady : she does n't feel that way . kimberly : who ha -- brady : do n't you realize the only reason she 's considering moving back to california is that she wants to use the threat to get me to dump melanie . kimberly : oh ? is this true ? theresa : no , of course not . but you know what , brady , listen . i owe melanie everything , okay ? and i have thanked her so many times . listen , i am putting tate first , okay . how about you ? kimberly : ha -- okay , okay . honey , it 's okay . brady , you got ta go . i think you got ta go -- take this worthless document with you . and listen , for future reference , my daughter is not going to sign anything unless our lawyer looks over every single detail first . brady : fine . but if you think you 're gon na take my son away from me , it 's never gon na happen . eve : [ sighs ] she 's not here . either daphne was wrong or paige is already gone . jj : damn it , all right . eve : not so fast ! jj : what now , eve ? eve : well , here we are , jj . it 's where this whole mess started , and where it ended . jj : i do n't want to talk about this anymore -- eve : of course you do n't . you just walk away . knew you were n't man enough to face your mistakes . jj : all right , you know what ? you think i have n't faced my mistakes ? i had to look paige in the eye and see how hurt she was . and betrayed . i broke her heart . and now i 'll never be able to forgive myself . eve : good . you should n't . because if you had listened to me from the beginning , i would still have my daughter . jennifer : paige , you and jj wanted to get back together . but jj knew that your mother would never allow it . so that is when i went to her ... and i told her if she did n't leave the two of you alone , that i would ... paige : you 'd tell me that she slept with my boyfriend . jennifer : yeah . and that 's when you saw us fighting , and -- and -- that 's when i almost told you myself . paige : but you did n't . because my mom caved , right ? [ laughs softly ] it all makes sense now . because the next day jj did a complete 180 . instead of pushing me away like he had been for months , he said things were suddenly over with `` roxanne `` and that he wanted me back . just when i was starting to get over him . god , how could you do this to me ? jennifer : honey , i thought that you and jj were still in love . and that if you could give it a try without your mother 's interference -- paige : oh , and you think your interference was some kind of good deed ? if things had gone your way , i would 've been living a horrible lie for the rest of my life . justin : i think you know what 's going on . my wife did n't come home last night . so let me take a wild guess and say she spent the night with you . adrienne : you said you were going to dubai to be with elsa . justin : i said i was going to dubai for work . lucas : then why are you here ? kate : oh , if you must know , the reason that justin did n't go to dubai is because he 's coming to work for me . jennifer : paige , i know that i made a mistake . i knew it right away . but there was no undoing it because you and jj were already back together . and all i wanted was for you to be spared the hurt that you 're feeling right now . paige : oh , no . do n't act like you did something noble . like you gave a damn about my flings . the only thing you cared about was enabling your lying son . you sacrificed me so that jj could get what he wanted . jennifer : no , paige , no . i wanted to help you . i - i did , and i know that i made things worse , and i am so , so sorry . paige : [ laughs softly ] funny . i always thought jj was so lucky to have a mother like you . compared to my own mom , you always seemed so ... together and responsible and ... upstanding . but now i see , the two of you really are n't that different at all . eve : yeah , i knew from the beginning that you were going to end up hurting my daughter . because i saw how selfish you were , jj . so selfish that you kept pursuing paige even after you slept with her mother . jj : all right , what do you call yourself , eve ? if you had n't kept trying to come between us -- eve : none of this would have happened ? really ? are you kidding me ? if it were n't me it 'd be somebody else . not only are n't you man enough to own up to what you did , you had to run to mommy to- to get her to , you know , blackmail me into helping you win paige back . i told jennifer that was a stupid idea , but no , the two of you just insisted that it was the right thing to do . how do you feel about it now , jj , hmm ? 'cause you know that paige never would have been that devastated if you had n't tried to win her back to make her fall in love with you again . jj : i was just trying to make her happy . eve : but instead , you destroyed her . and you took from me the one ... the only thing that i 've ever cared about in this whole world . [ deep inhale ] but there is one ... one consolation in all this , and that is ... [ laughs softly ] i know that she 's never gon na end up with you . jj : well , you know what , that 's where you 're wrong . 'cause i am going to get her back , eve . theresa : look , i really , really appreciate you sticking up for me . kimberly : yeah . theresa : okay ? kimberly : yeah . theresa : but i mean , come on , you saw how tense brady got when you were here , and ... look , i can handle him . and besides , you know what , it 's gon na cost a fortune for you to change your flight last minute . and dad ca n't be alone . kimberly : right . theresa : i mean , you said so yourself . he has n't been 100 % since his surgery , and -- kimberly : i get it , you want me to go home , you want me to go home . [ humming ] i get it . i get it . until you need me again , then i will be here on a moment 's notice . theresa : thanks . kimberly : okay . oh , what we need to do in the meantime , we need to get all our legal ducks in a row so you can come home whenever you want . theresa : well , i appreciate it . kimberly : yeah ? all right . all right , so i got ta get moving and ... you know , i wish that i had seen paige and eve while i was here . the funny thing -- they did n't return any of my phone calls . theresa : oh , god , how unlike them . kimberly : [ laughs ] now , now , now , now . i 'm gon na make sure that they 're here to support you while i 'm gone , all right ? theresa : okay , mom , look i 'll be fine . i promise . come here . i just -- i ca n't thank you enough for all of your help . maggie : what do you mean , you know what you have to do ? daniel : does this have something to do with brady and theresa ? [ knock on door ] melanie : hi . brady : hi . can we uh , can we talk ? melanie : yeah . maggie : okay . i 'll get go -- go get parker ready . daniel : we 'll finish this conversation . melanie : what 's wrong ? brady : um ... melanie , things went really , really badly with theresa . melanie : [ sighs ] i 'm sorry . i promise you , though , everything 's going to be okay . adrienne : you 've been working on that dubai deal for almost a year . i ca n't believe you 'd give that up to work for kate . hocking lipstick . kate : [ scoffs ] justin : i wo n't only be working for mad world . and as far as the situation with kate -- kate : i thought justin would be the perfect person to assume some of lucas 's old responsibilities . adrienne : so you asked justin to take lucas 's job ? lucas : that 's not what 's going on here . kate : oh , really ? you do n't believe that we 're working together ? lucas : no , i believe that . i believe you 're working together , but ... obviously neither of you are happy about it , so , uh , stop trying to pretend it was your idea . adrienne : [ gasps ] victor . lucas : yeah . of course . eve : you are a sick , delusional idiot ! paige is never gon na take you back . she not a -- she 's never gon na forgive you for what you did to her . jj : yeah , maybe not . but i 've got to try . and do n't forget , i still have proof that you tried to frame me for dealing drugs . so if you do anything to stop me , i will turn over the evidence to the police . eve : mm , you are a sorry excuse for a human being . you 're subhuman . i mean , why do you have to try , jj ? my god , if you really loved paige , you would set her free . you 'd stay away from her and let her move on with her life . jj : is that what you 're going to do ? eve : i 'm her mother . jj : you 're the worst mother she could possibly ask for . [ slap ] jj : [ clears throat ] see what i mean ? eve : [ exhales ] daniel : you know and this situation with brady , i know how much she loves him . and - and it 's just gotten ... [ both sigh ] daniel : i do n't know , it 's just complex , obviously . maggie : what do you think melanie 's planning to do ? daniel : i do n't know . i 'm sure she 'll tell us when she 's ready . maggie : mm . but she 's so upset . i mean , she and brady have n't been together that long and this baby ... oh , it 's going to be a huge test in their relationship . daniel : yeah , but they 've friends for a very long time . and i think , you know what , i think they 're gon na be strong enough to get through this . maggie : i hope you 're right . it 's just that whenever theresa 's involved , i ca n't help but worry . [ laughs softly ] anne : have you completely lost it ? you gave up enough money to keep us -- i mean you -- in manolo blahniks for a lifetime ! you could have bought that gorgeous house i found down on university parkway -- theresa : i do n't want to live on university parkway , anne . anne : oh , no of course not . what was i thinking ? why would you want to live in a million dollar mansion when you could cozy up in a cramped little apartment that overlooks a parking lot and gets no light ? theresa : listen . the point is , if i sign on that dotted line i still would n't be getting what i want . anne : and what do you want , theresa ? theresa : well , i just think that it would be easier to raise my child alongside brady if , you know , melanie , was n't around . anne : uh - huh . do n't you mean easier to get brady back ? theresa : well , is n't that what 's best for tate ? you know , to have his parents together ? anne : yes , well , in an ideal world , yes , of course . that 's what 's best , right ? two adoring parents , no custody battles , right ? just love and harmony and ai n't life perfect . but i 'll tell you something , unless you 're planning another little incident , you know , like with a fireplace poker ... i do n't see melanie going anywhere any time soon . melanie : well , i know you had custody papers drawn up last night . i thought the terms were fair . did she not ? brady : she pretty much flipped out . she and her mom . melanie : she 's still threatening to move to california unless i 'm out of the picture . she said she did n't mean to give that impression . melanie : oh , what impression did she mean to give ? brady : i do n't -- you know what , i do n't care . it does n't matter . it does n't matter because she does n't get to dictate how i live my life . and i do n't want to live my life without you . melanie : do you want to live your life without your son ? parker : [ airplane noises ] daniel : hey , look out . maggie : whoa ! [ laughter ] maggie : oh , i hate that so many people i love are going through such a difficult time . daniel : yeah . have you -- have you talked to jennifer ? maggie : she 's in a terrible state . she blames herself for what happened to paige . daniel : yeah , i just wish there was something i could 've done but , i ... maggie : you know what ? how did you find out the truth ? daniel : well , at first , paige thought eve slept with ... with me . maggie : oh . daniel : only because my jacket was at the apartment . maggie : ah , the jacket that jj borrowed . hmm . daniel : yeah , and i tried . i tried to get jennifer and jj to tell paige the truth , but it had gotten so far out of hand by then it ... i do n't know . i just hope it has n't gotten any worse . oh , my goodness ! you 're a wild man , on the loose . parker : [ giggling ] maxine : i 'll get right on this . you want to talk about it ? jennifer : no . because you 're going to try to make me feel better , and i 'd rather sit here and just beat myself up about it a little bit more . maxine : do n't do that , jen . you 're a good person and a wonderful mom . be kind to yourself , okay ? jennifer : [ sighs ] maybe i should call jj .

[ wheelbarrow clatters ] cane : look at these orders ! look at them . look at them ! victoria : i knew we would go big , but this ? these numbers are phenomenal . jill : oh , you did a great job ! i am so proud of my team ! and you , you can do a victory dance . billy : i 'm all danced out , thank you very much . cane : it 's lauren . hey ! hey , lauren . we 're excited , yeah . oh , that 's -- that 's great . no . no problem . okay . all right . bye . jill : what 's no problem ? cane : that was lauren , and bare by brash & sassy is flying off the shelves so fast , they 're gon na sell out in record time . and she wants to order 200,000 more units for all the stores . victoria : wow ! are you kidding me ? your gamble with the ad buys really paid off . jill : hey , hey , hey ! not quite . [ door closes ] jack : i 'm ready to make my move against victor . phyllis : and you want my help ? jack : i need your skill set . phyllis : we can do this , jack . we can bring him to his knees . jack : just to be clear . aside from both of us wanting victor to go down , this does n't change anything between us . phyllis : i know exactly where i stand with you . now , what 's your plan ? jack : have a seat . business stories and publicly released information say that newman is in the black -- in all divisions . huge profits , never better . phyllis : but that tells a different story ? jack : this tells the truth . the oil and shipping arms of newman are operating at a significant loss . he has been siphoning off money from other divisions to cover that up . he 's been lying to the business world , to his corporate partners , he 's been lying to his board -- made up largely of his family -- all of whom have just finished lobbying to have him released from prison . phyllis : so they 're all going to feel betrayed again , and then victor is exposed for the lying , manipulating , cheat he is . jack : this is where you come in . i have n't decided the best way to deliver the good news . my first is an anonymous delivery to the d.a . christine will see that the proper authorities are involved . this is corporate fraud , pure and simple . victor will never see it coming . phyllis : that is one way to go about it -- involve cricket . but ... i have a better idea that does n't involve the bug -- ashley : jack , i 've got news . what are you doing with your heads together ? jill : there 's no way we can deliver that amount of units that fast . victoria : [ sighs ] so we come up with a solution . jill : well , you better . because empty shelves mean a sudden drop in interest . same thing on the internet . if people have to wait too long , sales are gon na plummet . cane : okay , i 'll call the manufacturer , offer them an incentive so they make us a top priority -- problem solved . billy : it 's not gon na be that easy . their new ceo -- harrison sawyer jr. -- of course , only runs the company because he inherited it . he 's more interested in schmoozing than he is with contracts and negotiations . victoria : i worked with his father a few years back -- harrison sr . he 's a tough sell , but i managed to negotiate a very lucrative contract for brash & sassy . cane : okay , go work your magic . victoria : well , maybe i 'll make an appointment with junior and , uh , see if i can make him an offer that he ca n't refuse . jill : if anybody can do it , you can . in the meantime , since you know this harrison jr. , you go with her . cane : are you serious ? billy : [ scoffs ] cane : you 're gon na turn our biggest meeting so far into a date ? jill : would you please relax ? this is purely business . and while they 're off negotiating for these units , you and i will draft a press release to announce our spectacular triumph . cane : you know , there 's a , uh , a little part of you that seems to want to take our spectacular triumph and rub it in our competitor 's face . jill : [ chuckles ] cane : i 'm feeling this . jill : how about a great , big , gigantic part of me ?

jack : i was just giving phyllis her next assignment . ashley : i was hoping you were gon na give her her walking papers . jack : do n't worry . phyllis knows . her next breach of trust , she is out of here . understood ? phyllis : i have apologized profusely . it 'll never happen again . ashley : once was one too many times . she hacked into your computer . if that 's not grounds for dismissal , i do n't know what is . i mean , how many shots at `` breach of trust `` does she get ? did n't trust get thrown out the window when she climbed into bed with our brother ? phyllis : hey ! i 'm still here ! ashley : yeah , you are still here , are n't you ? because you are ... what , far too generous ? jack : what did you want to see me about , ash ? ashley : [ sighs ] i was right -- my prediction about brash & sassy 's new perfume . overnight sensation -- sales and orders are going through the roof . jack : so where are we on our strategy to counteract their rollout ? ashley : i 'm researching it as we speak . jack : okay , i want something on my desk by the end of today . something big . and it has to be soon . we do n't want to lose any more market share . ashley : excuse me , hello ? i have news , like i said . our new moisturizer is selling like gangbusters , as well . in fact , so good that i had to place a double purchase order with production . i spoke to harrison this morning . jack : well , that 's good news . i 'm not sure how it 's relevant . phyllis : brash & sassy uses the same manufacturer . they ca n't handle two orders of that size . if they 're making products for us ... ashley : they ca n't fulfill brash & sassy 's orders . jack : my sister to the rescue . outstanding ! ashley : thank you . chelsea : making this costume . seeing how excited connor is to go trick - or- treating , go to this party , filled with joy ... and then i remember . adam 's not gon na be able to take connor trick - or - treating ever again . he 's not gon na be able to watch him open christmas presents or blow out the candles on his birthday cake . and i -- i start to feel like i 'm not gon na be able to get through this without him . chloe : i 'm sorry . chelsea : do n't be sorry . you 've been able to remind me that [ sighs ] i have to make every single moment special . especially halloween . this has to be the best halloween for him . especially after last year [ sniffles ] after last year 's fiasco of adam being in custody and [ sighs ] you know , being in the hospital . chloe : yeah . because of me . chelsea : yeah , but you were n't you last year . you were acting out of grief . [ sighs ] i just remember that night so well . i mean , adam insisted i take connor to that party at newman tower , to give him the best halloween . and there was that fire . adam dragged himself out of his hospital bed to come save us . he almost died . chloe : that was really brave . chelsea : [ sighs ] he told me after that that the reason he survived was because of me and 'cause of connor . he said he would always come back for us . except this time . he 's not coming back for us this time . [ sniffles ] oh , gosh . [ sniffles ] chloe : i 'm so sorry . chelsea : no , it 's okay . i 'm okay . i 'm okay . i have to be okay . for my son 's sake , i have to be okay . i have to give connor an amazing life -- full of happy memories . that 's what adam would have wanted . [ sniffles ] [ sighs ] chloe : i have a great idea . it 's a gorgeous day outside . let 's get the kids up from their naps and let 's go make happy memories at the pumpkin patch . chelsea : you really are the best . you know that ? [ sniffles ] you make me feel like i 'm strong even when i 'm not strong . [ laughs ] i do n't know what i would do without you . mariah : nice towel . nick : i was just about to get in the shower . i heard sharon yell for help . i thought it might be the stalker , so i came running . kevin : what were you gon na do to the stalker dressed like that ? nick : do i need to show you what an incredible towel snapper i am ? mariah : oh , no ! no . i do n't want to picture that , thank you . [ scoffs ] sharon : well , i 'm sorry i startled you , nick . but you know , it was kind of an emergency . nick : it 's all good . sharon : [ chuckles ] mariah : halloween decorations ? sharon : yeah , it 's time to get into the spirit ! you 're gon na go to the pumpkin patch with us , are n't you ? because after that , there 's gon na be some decorating to do and some pumpkin carving and some treats to be had . mariah : yeah , i 'm in . should i got upstairs and get the little monsters ready ? sharon : thank you , yeah . mariah : cool . nick : any , uh , word on the stalker ? like , who it might be ? where he might be ? kevin : uh , well , we are monitoring sharon 's phones , we 've got a trap and a trace device set up , and we 're working with branch security in case the guy does show up , but so far , it 's all quiet . sharon : well , hopefully it will stay that way . nick : thanks for looking out . uh , i 'm gon na go get changed into my pumpkin- patch attire . kevin : oh , that 's not it ? well , i am sorry that we do n't have any more leads . i 'm sure you 're kinda freaked out , but we get anything -- i promise you -- this guy 's cooked . sharon : you know , i 'm just trying to keep things normal for the kids . you want to go to the pumpkin patch with us ? kevin : well , is n't that sort of a family thing ? sharon : yeah , but , you know , the more , the merrier . or should i say scarier ? kevin : [ laughs ] [ telephone rings ] nick : that could be him ! sharon : [ sighs ] it 's dylan ! hi , sweetie . yeah , everything 's okay . faith : oh ! can i talk to dylan ? i want to tell him we 're going to the pumpkin patch . sharon : hold on a minute , sweetie . faith would like to talk to you , okay ? okay . kevin : must be kind of weird , huh ? moving back in . i mean , even if it 's just temporary , it 's still got to be strange -- awkward , with an ex ? nick : yeah . yeah , i mean , it 's a little awkward and i do n't like the reason why i 'm here , but we got to spend a lot of time with sharon and the kids , so ... mariah : sully is very excited to go to the pumpkin patch . and he does n't even know what one is yet . nick : well , i 'm excited , too . let me go get him . come on , man , let 's got get some jack - o - lanterns ! jill : great job with the press release . cane : all right , i 'll get it out right now for you . jill : mm ! no . we need to run it by billy and victoria first . what ? ! you 're a team ! we 've been crushing it with you as a team . let 's just keep up the momentum and we 'll build a strategy to take advantage of this spectacular triumph . cane : all right , listen , i 'm gon na focus on video marketing so we can get the millennial and maybe build a micro site ... charlie and mattie : daddy ! cane : what are you guys doing here ? hey ! lily : hi . oh , what a great surprise . look at these pumpkins ! charlie : we picked them ourselves . jill : you did ? you did a great job ! lily : yeah , i thought maybe you could take a break and we could have a picnic at the park ? you know , since you work late tonight maybe we could carve pumpkins , while we eat ? cane : oh , i would love to , but i ca n't . i have -- i 've got too much work i have to do right now . guys , i 'm sorry . victoria : so anyway , thank you for meeting us on such short notice . harrison : it 's my pleasure . it 's great to put names to faces . victoria : yes . [ sighs ] well , we 're in a bind , in a good way -- actually in a great way . we have a 200,000-unit order to fill . harrison : good for you . victoria : mm - hmm . harrison : great . but before we talk business , let 's celebrate your success . they have a 2000 bordeaux . it 's an excellent year . victoria : oh , nice ! are you a connoisseur ? harrison : uh , i do n't know about that . but i am fairly knowledgeable . i enjoy a good bottle . billy : well , maybe you 'd be up for something a little bit less traditional ? harrison : i 'm always open to try something new . billy : there 's a 2007 napa cabernet . it 's big , bold , and -- harrison : let me guess -- brash and sassy ? victoria : [ laughs ] billy : that is exactly right . it seems fitting for a meeting like this i would say . harrison : mm . sounds good to me . victoria : so , perhaps we should talk cost per unit . with incentives ... ashley : so , i did finesse the deal with harrison , but since you 're still here ... phyllis : mm . ashley : ... keep your eye on it . and him . phyllis : i am on it . ashley : great . jack : hold on . we 're not through yet . ashley , could i have a moment alone with phyllis ? ashley : no , we 're supposed to go over options for brand ambassadors . jack : that 'll have to wait . ashley : of course . jack : sis . good job . phyllis : that was close . jack : okay , you said you have a plan . what is it ? phyllis : victor is waiting for an attack . he is on high alert . this inside information you got , we may not be able to trust it from your source . jack : you think it might be bogus information , that we 've been set up ? phyllis : if we pass along bogus information to the authorities , they could close the case . and then game over . victor walks along his merry way . jack : so , what 's your plan ? phyllis : we leak the information -- to someone like gc buzz -- jack : no . no ! phyllis : just hear me out . it would be all over the tv , the web , it would not matter whether it was true or not . jack : victor can question the validity all he wants , the damage is already done . phyllis : but in the court of public opinion , victor will be found out guilty as hell . jack : you 're a genius , red . faith : what about this one ? nick : ooh ! faith : oh , no . this one ! nick : [ chuckles ] faith : [ gasps ] no , this one ! it 's so much better ! nick : that one 's pretty cool . mariah : is it ? they 're all orange , round squashes . kevin : gourds . pumpkins are gourds . mariah : i promise you , i did n't need to know that . chelsea : hey , everybody ! sharon : hi ! what a nice surprise ! nick : what 's up , con ? how you doing , bud ? yeah . chelsea : we have circled this field twice , and connor has not found the perfect pumpkin . nick : ah . what 's , uh ... what 's that one ? chelsea : well , that one is bella 's . nick : okay . faith : my dad is the best pumpkin picker ever . you should totally help connor look for one . nick : are you sure ? it 's kind of a tradition with just you and me . faith : okay , make sure the shell is hard , do n't pick it up by the stem , and do n't choose one that 's bigger than you can carry , unless you 're with your dad . nick : i have taught you so well . chelsea and faith : [ laughs ] faith : and now i can teach sully . sharon : i guess that settles it . nick : well , okay . connor , come on , man . chelsea : all right . sharon : have fun , you two . chelsea : thanks . faith : come on , mommy , over here ! sharon : all right . mariah : all right . i know you want to . go photobomb . kevin : well , chloe was n't so keen on hanging out the other day , so ... mariah : it was the anniversary of delia 's death . she wanted to be alone . you respected that . that does n't mean stay away . kevin : well , i have n't heard from her since , so maybe she needs some more time . cane : okay , i 'll tell you what , i promise you guys as soon as daddy gets home , i 'm gon na help you carve these pumpkins , okay ? mattie : but we 're always asleep when you get home . jill : aw , that does it . hey , hey , hey . this is all my fault . i 'm a very tough boss , and i 've been loading your daddy up with work . so , daddy , take the afternoon off , spend the time with your beautiful babies , 'cause you 've earned it . cane : you know what , i have a better idea . how about we get this conference room ready , we go in there and carve so when i 've finished , i can go straight back to work ? mattie and charlie : yeah ! jill : all right , but first , hugs and kisses for grandma . and a little bit for grandpa colin , too . okay . have fun ! cane : now , listen , guys , one thing , one thing . we have to be careful , all right ? we ca n't be slinging pumpkin guts around this year , all right ? let 's go ! come on , come on , come on ! jack : clearly , we ca n't just e - mail this information to gc buzz . phyllis : no , we -- we ca n't leave an electronic trail . jack : okay , here 's what i want you to do -- print a paper copy of this , clear the printer history , and destroy this flash drive . understood ? phyllis : you can count on me , jack . ashley : did you have a nice chat with jack ? phyllis : lesson learned . ashley : the hell it is . you can keep working my brother , which we both know is exactly what you 're doing . but i 'm gon na be watching you every step of the way . 'cause you 're not gon na hurt him again . phyllis : did you let yourself into my office just to dump on me ? ashley : the manufacturing deal with harrison , i do n't anticipate there being any problems , but i want you to keep a close eye on production , just in case . phyllis : not a problem . is there anything else ? ashley : i 'm so surprised that you 're still here . i mean , honestly , you crossed the line . this was n't the first time , right ? and all jack did was give you a little scolding . and apparently some secret assignment ? phyllis : [ scoffs ] well , let me clue you in , jack still hates me . and instead of yelling and screaming about it , he buries me in crappy little assignments like generating a report for a market share that nobody 's gon na read . you know what i get ? a thousand paper cuts . ashley : and yet you stay . you do know that you 're not gon na get what you want , right ? phyllis : you know what i 'd settle for ? to be left alone to do my job , which will only ever be useless brainless busywork in my broom closet because jack does not trust me with anything important anymore . billy : australia definitely best surf that i 've ever been in . i tell you what , harrison , if i could start every day paddling out and with one or two of these , life would be sweet . harrison : hmm . a man after my own heart . victoria : [ sighs ] so , we , uh , we knew that the launch of the perfume was gon na be huge . but this , i mean , this is incredible . so , i mean , meeting this demand will be a bit of a challenge , um , but if we work together , the more revenue that we make , the more revenue you make . harrison : right , the people behind the business that interest me do like to surf . what 's the rest of your story ? billy : [ chuckles ] it 's not that interesting . harrison : mm , i doubt that . i must say , you do n't strike me as the makeup and perfume kinda guy . how 'd you get in the business ? billy : [ sighs ] an old love . harrison : well , do n't stop now -- let 's hear that story . billy : my ex owned brash & sassy . poured everything in to it , made it what it was , and lost it in a shady negotiation . i wanted to right the wrong , so i bought the company to make amends . harrison : victoria , your partner 's quite the romantic . victoria : yes , and he 's giving you a revisionist history . i doubt that harrison wants to hear these stories , billy . and there 's a reason that we called this meeting , right ? billy : that 's true . victoria 's right . our new perfume is a smash , harrison . we need to up the production by three fold . we can not afford to run out . harrison : i 'd love to help , but i ca n't . the factory 's at full capacity manufacturing for jabot . victoria : yeah , but you 've handled both companies before . what 's changed ? harrison : well , jabot doubled their usual manufacturing order . billy : when ? harrison : this morning . billy : i should 've known . thank you for your time , harrison . it was a pleasure to meet you . harrison : uh , but i just ordered a second bottle . billy , you should stay . i 'm sure we can work this out . billy : you should stay . i ca n't sit here and talk business knowing that i was just stabbed in the back . chelsea : you know , this is the easy part , but it 's the carving that 's the problem . sharon : oh , well , you should have nick help you with that . he is amazing . nick : yeah , i do n't know about amazing . sharon : oh , come on , yes , you are . you should lend your expertise to chelsea and connor . no , that 's not what i 'm doing , i 'm not matchmaking -- those days are over . this is about the kids . it 's about connor and bella . you could help them carve their pumpkins and then come home and help faith with hers . nick : look , i made a promise to dylan . i 'm not leaving you and the kids . chloe : wait , what 's going on ? nick : sharon 's been getting some weird calls to her house and on her cell phone . so she may have a stalker . i promised dylan i 'd look out for sharon and the kids while he 's out of town for a couple days . chelsea : wait , what ? ! is this why you wanted to work from home ? sharon : well , i choose to believe that this is over . i have not gotten a weird phone call since dylan left . chelsea : well , i 'm glad , but i 'm with nick on this one . i mean , you should n't be alone . nick : yeah , but i do n't want connor to think i 'm bailing on him . sharon : okay , well , how 's this ? if dylan is home by halloween and sharon is feeling safe , why do n't you come trick - or - treating with me and connor ? you can show him how it 's done . nick : well , i do have some pretty sick trick - or - treating skills . chelsea : oh , geez , is there anything you 're not good at ? nick : well , i ca n't be in two places at once . i 'm working on that . chelsea : mm . nick : i 'll tell you what , if dylan does come home , then i will help you and connor go trick - or - treating . how 's that sound ? chelsea : it 's a date . but not a date . sharon : no , i get it . chelsea : all right , what do you say ? should we get these ghouls home and start our pumpkin carving ? chloe : yes , just give me one moment , okay ? mariah : looks like fall 's officially here . kevin : okay . [ scoffs ] mariah : and it looks like somebody 's over needing space . kevin : hi . chloe : hey . sorry , i was kind of mia the last few days , i just ... kevin : yeah , you needed some time . chloe : well , i was hoping that you had some ? poor bella , she would really like to see you . and i was thinking maybe we could do some decorating , some -- some carving , you know , the usual halloween mayhem . kevin : yeah , that sounds great , but i was supposed to hang with mariah ... mariah : that 's okay . you ca n't disappoint bella . go on . kevin : uh , well , wait till she sees my scary ghost impression . i mean , i 'll tone it down a little bit . chloe : you can not scare my daughter . kevin : i will tone it down . i do n't want to scare her . ashley : so you really let phyllis off the hook . do n't worry . ' m not letting her get to me . ashley : hmm . slap on the wrist and a special assignment ? sounds like she may be already is getting to you . jack : cost analysis of second quarter revenues -- hardly a special assignment . ashley : phyllis said it was market research . jack : okay , maybe it w -- i gave her a file . as long as it 's pure drudgery . the point is to get her tortured enough to leave the company . ashley : right , yeah , i think it 's really odd that you 're okay with her spying on you . billy : really , jack ? this stunt with manufacturing ? what the hell are you doing ? victoria : so , um , a whole month sailing in the greek isles ? sounds like paradise . harrison : you should try it sometime . does billy like sailing ? victoria : billy likes fun . that , um , ex of his , any chance they 're getting back together ? victoria : oh , god , no . harrison : well , in that case , would you mind giving me his number ? i 'd love to continue our conversation over dinner . there 's a great little place in mistral . i think he 'd really like it . victoria : yeah , he does like it , actually . we went there for our anniversary a few years ago . harrison : you 're the ex ? victoria : i am . [ both chuckle ] harrison : ah . you seem to work so well together . not everybody could pull that off . victoria : yeah , i know . i mean , what can i say ? sometimes i think we 're crazy to do it , but the building has n't fallen down around us yet , so ... harrison : well , i have to ask , why did you let a guy like billy go ? i mean , he 's the total package . style , charm , intelligence , that smoldering stare . victoria : oh , he does know how to work that smoldering stare , does n't he ? oh , well , he 's a great guy . we just did n't have a very great relationship , that 's all . harrison : well , i do n't know what broke you up . that man bought brash & sassy 'cause it meant that much to you . now , in the world of romantic gestures [ scoffs ] that beats the hell out of flowers , girl . you , uh , ever think that -- victoria : no ! no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no . we 're coworkers and we 're coparents , and that 's it . we 've actually both moved on . harrison : or maybe you just refuse to see what 's in front of you . victoria : no , i see billy very clearly . jack : get the hell out of my office . billy : this is how you 're gon na come after me , huh ? jack : i do n't even think of you . billy : by sabotaging our rollout ? jack : i have done no such thing . ashley : you 're out of line , billy . billy : really ? of course you would take his side , ashley . ashley : i 'm taking his side because you 're out of line . we handled this like we would handle any other competitor . billy : this is jack trying to stick it to me , is n't it ? ashley : you 're wrong ! do you really think he 'd be that petty ? billy : yes , i do , 'cause i slept with his wife . come on , jack . tell me this is n't personal . go ahead . jack : i 've got work to do . billy : look me in the eye . tell me this is n't the first move in a long term plan to sabotage my company . jack : i will say this one more time -- get the hell out of my office . charlie : stop it ! mattie : you stop ! cane : what are you doing ? i said to you please do n't make a mess . i said to you -- guys , what are you doing ? why do n't you listen ? mattie : sorry , daddy . cane : mattie , ju -- no , no , no , no . it 's not gon na cut it . sorry 's not gon na cut it this time . it 's not . lily : let 's get this cleaned up . come on , you guys , come on . cane : no , do n't touch that , do n't touch that . that 's important , all right ? just , just , please just stop it . chloe : it was too bad that nick could n't join us , but i guess with everything that 's going on with sharon , it makes sense that he wants to be close to her . chelsea : yeah . it must be unsettling having somebody invade your life like that . it gives me the creeps just thinking about it . chloe : so are there any leads ? kevin : eh , not really . chloe : so there 's something . kevin : well , whoever it is , they call , they hang up . we tried to trace the call but got nothing . i 'm thinking prank and the prankster got bored . chelsea : well , i do n't think dylan agrees with you . or else , why would he have nick staying there ? kevin : well , dylan is very protective of sharon . nick 's not the only one who 's watching her , he 's go the whole department involved -- regular patrols . chloe : did you ever think that maybe this person is trying to contact dylan , has a tip about the case ? kevin : we 've got a hotline at the station for that kind of thing . chloe : yeah , i know . i just think it 's weird that dylan goes out of town , the calls stop . chelsea : well , i hope they stop for good and this freak leaves them alone . [ scoffs ] how in the world did we get pumpkin all the way to the fireplace ? kevin : hey , why are you so interested in these calls to sharon ? mariah : all right . nick : you know , somehow that is just so you , mariah . mariah : you know , i am very minimalist . sharon : oh , nice ! and what about you , sweetie ? you ready ? faith : yep . nick : let 's see it . the big reveal . sharon : [ laughs ] mariah : [ laughs ] faith : ahh , ' kay . mariah : turn that sucker around . [ all gasp ] nick : oh , yeah ! that is the happiest jack - o - lantern i 've ever seen . faith : he 's happy because he love halloween . sharon : aw , good job , sweetie . okay , you better go up and get ready for bed . faith : okay . yours is good too , mommy . sharon : gee , thanks . nick : you know , she is a sweetheart , because that is a hatchet job . mariah : yeah . sharon : well , at least i tried . good thing that my kids are better at this than i am . mariah : uh , i think sully wins for the best pumpkin gut removal technique . nick : yeah , come on , little man . i 'll take you upstairs and get you all cleaned up . [ groans ] let 's go . nobody wants pumpkin on 'em . right ? sharon : did you see that ? mariah : see what ? sharon : how much nick is bonding with sully -- `` my little man , `` `` my little goblin . `` and how they 're so alike with the pumpkin slime . mariah : you 're being ridiculous . sharon : i 'm concerned . in case you 've forgotten , there 's a crazy woman who wants to tell the whole world my secret . harrison : thank you . my car 's here . victoria : okay , um , i 'll walk you to the door . thank you again for taking this meeting . if there 's anything that you can do to try to facilitate this order as soon as possible ... harrison : i 'll do my best , but i ca n't break my arrangement with jabot . victoria : yeah , of course . [ sighs heavily ] jill : well ? how did it go ? and where is billy ? victoria : he walked out . and i had to sit through two bottles of wine and no deal . jill : what do you mean , no deal ? victoria : and on top of that , did you put that harrison up to matchmaking or what ? jill : do n't be crazy ! i 've never spoken to him . why , what did he say ? victoria : never mind . ashley : time has n't healed anything yet , has it , jacky ? jack : every time i think it has , a -- a moment with billy , a look from phyllis and it 's another knife in the heart for me . ashley : is there anything i can do ? jack : oh , just be there for me , like you have been . it helps . ashley : i love you . jack : you too . come on , let 's call it a night . let 's get out of here . billy : what are you doing ? lily : there . it 's good as new . cane : it 's not good as new . i ruined a perfectly good time . lily : hey , you did n't ruin anything , okay ? the kids did exactly what we told them not to do . they 're old enough to know better . cane : no , it 's not their fault . it 's mine . i 'm just so stressed out at work , i just do n't know what i 'm doing sometimes . i 'm sorry . lily : honey , do n't be so hard on yourself . it happens to me , too . they just -- they just know how to push our buttons and you lose it . i mean , it 's fine . do n't worry . cane : yeah , i got to admit , mattie had the pumpkin on her nose , it was kind of cute , you know ? lily : [ chuckles ] they are the cutest . come here . hey , hey . come here . i 'm sorry . sweetie , i 'm sorry . your daddy loves you . i 'm so sorry i yelled at you like that . chloe : i 'm interested in who the caller might be because , you know , it 's -- it 's scary . just like chelsea said -- and not like halloween scary , like , creepy scary . kevin : and because ... ? chloe : and because i 'm thinking of chelsea . kevin : chelsea ? chloe : i know this sounds farfetched , but dylan was very deep into investigating adam 's death and , i do n't know , maybe this caller is trying to reach him because they have a tip or something . kevin : that 's an interesting theory , but no . the calls came into the land line and sharon 's cell , not dylan 's . i do n't think there 's any connection to adam . chelsea : kevin , can you help me ? i ca n't seem to get this gunk off . gross ! kevin : what is that ? chelsea [ laughs ] no , do n't ! get that ! do n't rub the paint off , silly . i 'm not gon na get the paint off . it 's sticky , it 's gross . mariah : sharon , please , take a breath . take 10 ! i mean , if you lose your cool -- you 're gon na tip nick off that you 're wigging out about him being around sully . and you know nick . if he starts to wonder what 's up , he 's not gon na stop until he figures it out . sharon : you 're right . i have got to get it together . [ sighs ] [ gasps ] mariah : sharon ? sharon : [ shrieks ] [ next_on ] phyllis : billy abbott ! you give me back that flash drive right now ! billy : you said there 's nothing important on here , phyllis , so it does n't really matter if i take a look , does it ? paul : does somebody want to tell me what the hell happened ? how did my sister get out of here ? | sharon worries that nick is bonding with sully , so she continues to shift his focus to chelsea and connor . sharon is jumpy and nervous that nick will discover the truth about sully . she goes outside because she thinks she hears a noise and then she screams . chloe wonders if the person calling sharon could be tied to adam , but kevin tells her he does n't think that 's the case . ashley manages to persuade the manufacturer of their moisturizer to concentrate on making their cosmetics instead of manufacturing the new brash and says perfume bare . that leaves brash and sassy unsure if they can fulfill a big order they have from fenmore 's . when jack asks phyllis to help him in his plan to bring down victor , she assures him that she will not let him down this time . cane is stressed about work and gets upset with his kids for making a mess in his office . | <s>[INST] sharon : nick ! i need help ! nick : hey ! oh , my god . whoa , whoa , whoa ! sharon : i ca n't -- nick : okay . okay . sharon : okay . nick : okay . i got it . sharon : okay . got it ? nick : i got it . i do n't got it . sharon : [ yells ] [ both laugh ] chloe : so , halloween -- it 's not my favorite holiday . but now that i have bella , i just love that she 's at the point where she 's finally realizing that something special is happening . you know ? so everything just needs to be perfect . i mean , the costume , the party , the trick - or - treating . right down to the jack - o - lanterns . i just ca n't wait to see her little face light up and watch her giggle and ... [ sighs ] what 's wrong ? chelsea : everything . lily : okay , you guys . here we are . now , who is ready to find the best pumpkin ever ? huh ? hello ? hey , what happened to the running around and having a contest of who can find the best pumpkin ? what 's going on ? charlie : it 's not as much fun without daddy . lily : okay , daddy had to work . mattie : that 's all he ever does -- work . charlie : yeah . [ wheelbarrow clatters ] cane : look at these orders ! look at them . look at them ! victoria : i knew we would go big , but this ? these numbers are phenomenal . jill : oh , you did a great job ! i am so proud of my team ! and you , you can do a victory dance . billy : i 'm all danced out , thank you very much . cane : it 's lauren . hey ! hey , lauren . we 're excited , yeah . oh , that 's -- that 's great . no . no problem . okay . all right . bye . jill : what 's no problem ? cane : that was lauren , and bare by brash & sassy is flying off the shelves so fast , they 're gon na sell out in record time . and she wants to order 200,000 more units for all the stores . victoria : wow ! are you kidding me ? your gamble with the ad buys really paid off . jill : hey , hey , hey ! not quite . [ door closes ] jack : i 'm ready to make my move against victor . phyllis : and you want my help ? jack : i need your skill set . phyllis : we can do this , jack . we can bring him to his knees . jack : just to be clear . aside from both of us wanting victor to go down , this does n't change anything between us . phyllis : i know exactly where i stand with you . now , what 's your plan ? jack : have a seat . business stories and publicly released information say that newman is in the black -- in all divisions . huge profits , never better . phyllis : but that tells a different story ? jack : this tells the truth . the oil and shipping arms of newman are operating at a significant loss . he has been siphoning off money from other divisions to cover that up . he 's been lying to the business world , to his corporate partners , he 's been lying to his board -- made up largely of his family -- all of whom have just finished lobbying to have him released from prison . phyllis : so they 're all going to feel betrayed again , and then victor is exposed for the lying , manipulating , cheat he is . jack : this is where you come in . i have n't decided the best way to deliver the good news . my first is an anonymous delivery to the d.a . christine will see that the proper authorities are involved . this is corporate fraud , pure and simple . victor will never see it coming . phyllis : that is one way to go about it -- involve cricket . but ... i have a better idea that does n't involve the bug -- ashley : jack , i 've got news . what are you doing with your heads together ? jill : there 's no way we can deliver that amount of units that fast . victoria : [ sighs ] so we come up with a solution . jill : well , you better . because empty shelves mean a sudden drop in interest . same thing on the internet . if people have to wait too long , sales are gon na plummet . cane : okay , i 'll call the manufacturer , offer them an incentive so they make us a top priority -- problem solved . billy : it 's not gon na be that easy . their new ceo -- harrison sawyer jr. -- of course , only runs the company because he inherited it . he 's more interested in schmoozing than he is with contracts and negotiations . victoria : i worked with his father a few years back -- harrison sr . he 's a tough sell , but i managed to negotiate a very lucrative contract for brash & sassy . cane : okay , go work your magic . victoria : well , maybe i 'll make an appointment with junior and , uh , see if i can make him an offer that he ca n't refuse . jill : if anybody can do it , you can . in the meantime , since you know this harrison jr. , you go with her . cane : are you serious ? billy : [ scoffs ] cane : you 're gon na turn our biggest meeting so far into a date ? jill : would you please relax ? this is purely business . and while they 're off negotiating for these units , you and i will draft a press release to announce our spectacular triumph . cane : you know , there 's a , uh , a little part of you that seems to want to take our spectacular triumph and rub it in our competitor 's face . jill : [ chuckles ] cane : i 'm feeling this . jill : how about a great , big , gigantic part of me ? what , do you think that 's childish ? cane : mm ... a bit . jill : well , that 's too bad . boy , would i love to see those faces of jabot right about now . ashley : almost seems like old times , does n't it ? jack : i was just giving phyllis her next assignment . ashley : i was hoping you were gon na give her her walking papers . jack : do n't worry . phyllis knows . her next breach of trust , she is out of here . understood ? phyllis : i have apologized profusely . it 'll never happen again . ashley : once was one too many times . she hacked into your computer . if that 's not grounds for dismissal , i do n't know what is . i mean , how many shots at `` breach of trust `` does she get ? did n't trust get thrown out the window when she climbed into bed with our brother ? phyllis : hey ! i 'm still here ! ashley : yeah , you are still here , are n't you ? because you are ... what , far too generous ? jack : what did you want to see me about , ash ? ashley : [ sighs ] i was right -- my prediction about brash & sassy 's new perfume . overnight sensation -- sales and orders are going through the roof . jack : so where are we on our strategy to counteract their rollout ? ashley : i 'm researching it as we speak . jack : okay , i want something on my desk by the end of today . something big . and it has to be soon . we do n't want to lose any more market share . ashley : excuse me , hello ? i have news , like i said . our new moisturizer is selling like gangbusters , as well . in fact , so good that i had to place a double purchase order with production . i spoke to harrison this morning . jack : well , that 's good news . i 'm not sure how it 's relevant . phyllis : brash & sassy uses the same manufacturer . they ca n't handle two orders of that size . if they 're making products for us ... ashley : they ca n't fulfill brash & sassy 's orders . jack : my sister to the rescue . outstanding ! ashley : thank you . chelsea : making this costume . seeing how excited connor is to go trick - or- treating , go to this party , filled with joy ... and then i remember . adam 's not gon na be able to take connor trick - or - treating ever again . he 's not gon na be able to watch him open christmas presents or blow out the candles on his birthday cake . and i -- i start to feel like i 'm not gon na be able to get through this without him . chloe : i 'm sorry . chelsea : do n't be sorry . you 've been able to remind me that [ sighs ] i have to make every single moment special . especially halloween . this has to be the best halloween for him . especially after last year [ sniffles ] after last year 's fiasco of adam being in custody and [ sighs ] you know , being in the hospital . chloe : yeah . because of me . chelsea : yeah , but you were n't you last year . you were acting out of grief . [ sighs ] i just remember that night so well . i mean , adam insisted i take connor to that party at newman tower , to give him the best halloween . and there was that fire . adam dragged himself out of his hospital bed to come save us . he almost died . chloe : that was really brave . chelsea : [ sighs ] he told me after that that the reason he survived was because of me and 'cause of connor . he said he would always come back for us . except this time . he 's not coming back for us this time . [ sniffles ] oh , gosh . [ sniffles ] chloe : i 'm so sorry . chelsea : no , it 's okay . i 'm okay . i 'm okay . i have to be okay . for my son 's sake , i have to be okay . i have to give connor an amazing life -- full of happy memories . that 's what adam would have wanted . [ sniffles ] [ sighs ] chloe : i have a great idea . it 's a gorgeous day outside . let 's get the kids up from their naps and let 's go make happy memories at the pumpkin patch . chelsea : you really are the best . you know that ? [ sniffles ] you make me feel like i 'm strong even when i 'm not strong . [ laughs ] i do n't know what i would do without you . mariah : nice towel . nick : i was just about to get in the shower . i heard sharon yell for help . i thought it might be the stalker , so i came running . kevin : what were you gon na do to the stalker dressed like that ? nick : do i need to show you what an incredible towel snapper i am ? mariah : oh , no ! no . i do n't want to picture that , thank you . [ scoffs ] sharon : well , i 'm sorry i startled you , nick . but you know , it was kind of an emergency . nick : it 's all good . sharon : [ chuckles ] mariah : halloween decorations ? sharon : yeah , it 's time to get into the spirit ! you 're gon na go to the pumpkin patch with us , are n't you ? because after that , there 's gon na be some decorating to do and some pumpkin carving and some treats to be had . mariah : yeah , i 'm in . should i got upstairs and get the little monsters ready ? sharon : thank you , yeah . mariah : cool . nick : any , uh , word on the stalker ? like , who it might be ? where he might be ? kevin : uh , well , we are monitoring sharon 's phones , we 've got a trap and a trace device set up , and we 're working with branch security in case the guy does show up , but so far , it 's all quiet . sharon : well , hopefully it will stay that way . nick : thanks for looking out . uh , i 'm gon na go get changed into my pumpkin- patch attire . kevin : oh , that 's not it ? well , i am sorry that we do n't have any more leads . i 'm sure you 're kinda freaked out , but we get anything -- i promise you -- this guy 's cooked . sharon : you know , i 'm just trying to keep things normal for the kids . you want to go to the pumpkin patch with us ? kevin : well , is n't that sort of a family thing ? sharon : yeah , but , you know , the more , the merrier . or should i say scarier ? kevin : [ laughs ] [ telephone rings ] nick : that could be him ! sharon : [ sighs ] it 's dylan ! hi , sweetie . yeah , everything 's okay . faith : oh ! can i talk to dylan ? i want to tell him we 're going to the pumpkin patch . sharon : hold on a minute , sweetie . faith would like to talk to you , okay ? okay . kevin : must be kind of weird , huh ? moving back in . i mean , even if it 's just temporary , it 's still got to be strange -- awkward , with an ex ? nick : yeah . yeah , i mean , it 's a little awkward and i do n't like the reason why i 'm here , but we got to spend a lot of time with sharon and the kids , so ... mariah : sully is very excited to go to the pumpkin patch . and he does n't even know what one is yet . nick : well , i 'm excited , too . let me go get him . come on , man , let 's got get some jack - o - lanterns ! jill : great job with the press release . cane : all right , i 'll get it out right now for you . jill : mm ! no . we need to run it by billy and victoria first . what ? ! you 're a team ! we 've been crushing it with you as a team . let 's just keep up the momentum and we 'll build a strategy to take advantage of this spectacular triumph . cane : all right , listen , i 'm gon na focus on video marketing so we can get the millennial and maybe build a micro site ... charlie and mattie : daddy ! cane : what are you guys doing here ? hey ! lily : hi . oh , what a great surprise . look at these pumpkins ! charlie : we picked them ourselves . jill : you did ? you did a great job ! lily : yeah , i thought maybe you could take a break and we could have a picnic at the park ? you know , since you work late tonight maybe we could carve pumpkins , while we eat ? cane : oh , i would love to , but i ca n't . i have -- i 've got too much work i have to do right now . guys , i 'm sorry . victoria : so anyway , thank you for meeting us on such short notice . harrison : it 's my pleasure . it 's great to put names to faces . victoria : yes . [ sighs ] well , we 're in a bind , in a good way -- actually in a great way . we have a 200,000-unit order to fill . harrison : good for you . victoria : mm - hmm . harrison : great . but before we talk business , let 's celebrate your success . they have a 2000 bordeaux . it 's an excellent year . victoria : oh , nice ! are you a connoisseur ? harrison : uh , i do n't know about that . but i am fairly knowledgeable . i enjoy a good bottle . billy : well , maybe you 'd be up for something a little bit less traditional ? harrison : i 'm always open to try something new . billy : there 's a 2007 napa cabernet . it 's big , bold , and -- harrison : let me guess -- brash and sassy ? victoria : [ laughs ] billy : that is exactly right . it seems fitting for a meeting like this i would say . harrison : mm . sounds good to me . victoria : so , perhaps we should talk cost per unit . with incentives ... ashley : so , i did finesse the deal with harrison , but since you 're still here ... phyllis : mm . ashley : ... keep your eye on it . and him . phyllis : i am on it . ashley : great . jack : hold on . we 're not through yet . ashley , could i have a moment alone with phyllis ? ashley : no , we 're supposed to go over options for brand ambassadors . jack : that 'll have to wait . ashley : of course . jack : sis . good job . phyllis : that was close . jack : okay , you said you have a plan . what is it ? phyllis : victor is waiting for an attack . he is on high alert . this inside information you got , we may not be able to trust it from your source . jack : you think it might be bogus information , that we 've been set up ? phyllis : if we pass along bogus information to the authorities , they could close the case . and then game over . victor walks along his merry way . jack : so , what 's your plan ? phyllis : we leak the information -- to someone like gc buzz -- jack : no . no ! phyllis : just hear me out . it would be all over the tv , the web , it would not matter whether it was true or not . jack : victor can question the validity all he wants , the damage is already done . phyllis : but in the court of public opinion , victor will be found out guilty as hell . jack : you 're a genius , red . faith : what about this one ? nick : ooh ! faith : oh , no . this one ! nick : [ chuckles ] faith : [ gasps ] no , this one ! it 's so much better ! nick : that one 's pretty cool . mariah : is it ? they 're all orange , round squashes . kevin : gourds . pumpkins are gourds . mariah : i promise you , i did n't need to know that . chelsea : hey , everybody ! sharon : hi ! what a nice surprise ! nick : what 's up , con ? how you doing , bud ? yeah . chelsea : we have circled this field twice , and connor has not found the perfect pumpkin . nick : ah . what 's , uh ... what 's that one ? chelsea : well , that one is bella 's . nick : okay . faith : my dad is the best pumpkin picker ever . you should totally help connor look for one . nick : are you sure ? it 's kind of a tradition with just you and me . faith : okay , make sure the shell is hard , do n't pick it up by the stem , and do n't choose one that 's bigger than you can carry , unless you 're with your dad . nick : i have taught you so well . chelsea and faith : [ laughs ] faith : and now i can teach sully . sharon : i guess that settles it . nick : well , okay . connor , come on , man . chelsea : all right . sharon : have fun , you two . chelsea : thanks . faith : come on , mommy , over here ! sharon : all right . mariah : all right . i know you want to . go photobomb . kevin : well , chloe was n't so keen on hanging out the other day , so ... mariah : it was the anniversary of delia 's death . she wanted to be alone . you respected that . that does n't mean stay away . kevin : well , i have n't heard from her since , so maybe she needs some more time . cane : okay , i 'll tell you what , i promise you guys as soon as daddy gets home , i 'm gon na help you carve these pumpkins , okay ? mattie : but we 're always asleep when you get home . jill : aw , that does it . hey , hey , hey . this is all my fault . i 'm a very tough boss , and i 've been loading your daddy up with work . so , daddy , take the afternoon off , spend the time with your beautiful babies , 'cause you 've earned it . cane : you know what , i have a better idea . how about we get this conference room ready , we go in there and carve so when i 've finished , i can go straight back to work ? mattie and charlie : yeah ! jill : all right , but first , hugs and kisses for grandma . and a little bit for grandpa colin , too . okay . have fun ! cane : now , listen , guys , one thing , one thing . we have to be careful , all right ? we ca n't be slinging pumpkin guts around this year , all right ? let 's go ! come on , come on , come on ! jack : clearly , we ca n't just e - mail this information to gc buzz . phyllis : no , we -- we ca n't leave an electronic trail . jack : okay , here 's what i want you to do -- print a paper copy of this , clear the printer history , and destroy this flash drive . understood ? phyllis : you can count on me , jack . ashley : did you have a nice chat with jack ? phyllis : lesson learned . ashley : the hell it is . you can keep working my brother , which we both know is exactly what you 're doing . but i 'm gon na be watching you every step of the way . 'cause you 're not gon na hurt him again . phyllis : did you let yourself into my office just to dump on me ? ashley : the manufacturing deal with harrison , i do n't anticipate there being any problems , but i want you to keep a close eye on production , just in case . phyllis : not a problem . is there anything else ? ashley : i 'm so surprised that you 're still here . i mean , honestly , you crossed the line . this was n't the first time , right ? and all jack did was give you a little scolding . and apparently some secret assignment ? phyllis : [ scoffs ] well , let me clue you in , jack still hates me . and instead of yelling and screaming about it , he buries me in crappy little assignments like generating a report for a market share that nobody 's gon na read . you know what i get ? a thousand paper cuts . ashley : and yet you stay . you do know that you 're not gon na get what you want , right ? phyllis : you know what i 'd settle for ? to be left alone to do my job , which will only ever be useless brainless busywork in my broom closet because jack does not trust me with anything important anymore . billy : australia definitely best surf that i 've ever been in . i tell you what , harrison , if i could start every day paddling out and with one or two of these , life would be sweet . harrison : hmm . a man after my own heart . victoria : [ sighs ] so , we , uh , we knew that the launch of the perfume was gon na be huge . but this , i mean , this is incredible . so , i mean , meeting this demand will be a bit of a challenge , um , but if we work together , the more revenue that we make , the more revenue you make . harrison : right , the people behind the business that interest me do like to surf . what 's the rest of your story ? billy : [ chuckles ] it 's not that interesting . harrison : mm , i doubt that . i must say , you do n't strike me as the makeup and perfume kinda guy . how 'd you get in the business ? billy : [ sighs ] an old love . harrison : well , do n't stop now -- let 's hear that story . billy : my ex owned brash & sassy . poured everything in to it , made it what it was , and lost it in a shady negotiation . i wanted to right the wrong , so i bought the company to make amends . harrison : victoria , your partner 's quite the romantic . victoria : yes , and he 's giving you a revisionist history . i doubt that harrison wants to hear these stories , billy . and there 's a reason that we called this meeting , right ? billy : that 's true . victoria 's right . our new perfume is a smash , harrison . we need to up the production by three fold . we can not afford to run out . harrison : i 'd love to help , but i ca n't . the factory 's at full capacity manufacturing for jabot . victoria : yeah , but you 've handled both companies before . what 's changed ? harrison : well , jabot doubled their usual manufacturing order . billy : when ? harrison : this morning . billy : i should 've known . thank you for your time , harrison . it was a pleasure to meet you . harrison : uh , but i just ordered a second bottle . billy , you should stay . i 'm sure we can work this out . billy : you should stay . i ca n't sit here and talk business knowing that i was just stabbed in the back . chelsea : you know , this is the easy part , but it 's the carving that 's the problem . sharon : oh , well , you should have nick help you with that . he is amazing . nick : yeah , i do n't know about amazing . sharon : oh , come on , yes , you are . you should lend your expertise to chelsea and connor . no , that 's not what i 'm doing , i 'm not matchmaking -- those days are over . this is about the kids . it 's about connor and bella . you could help them carve their pumpkins and then come home and help faith with hers . nick : look , i made a promise to dylan . i 'm not leaving you and the kids . chloe : wait , what 's going on ? nick : sharon 's been getting some weird calls to her house and on her cell phone . so she may have a stalker . i promised dylan i 'd look out for sharon and the kids while he 's out of town for a couple days . chelsea : wait , what ? ! is this why you wanted to work from home ? sharon : well , i choose to believe that this is over . i have not gotten a weird phone call since dylan left . chelsea : well , i 'm glad , but i 'm with nick on this one . i mean , you should n't be alone . nick : yeah , but i do n't want connor to think i 'm bailing on him . sharon : okay , well , how 's this ? if dylan is home by halloween and sharon is feeling safe , why do n't you come trick - or - treating with me and connor ? you can show him how it 's done . nick : well , i do have some pretty sick trick - or - treating skills . chelsea : oh , geez , is there anything you 're not good at ? nick : well , i ca n't be in two places at once . i 'm working on that . chelsea : mm . nick : i 'll tell you what , if dylan does come home , then i will help you and connor go trick - or - treating . how 's that sound ? chelsea : it 's a date . but not a date . sharon : no , i get it . chelsea : all right , what do you say ? should we get these ghouls home and start our pumpkin carving ? chloe : yes , just give me one moment , okay ? mariah : looks like fall 's officially here . kevin : okay . [ scoffs ] mariah : and it looks like somebody 's over needing space . kevin : hi . chloe : hey . sorry , i was kind of mia the last few days , i just ... kevin : yeah , you needed some time . chloe : well , i was hoping that you had some ? poor bella , she would really like to see you . and i was thinking maybe we could do some decorating , some -- some carving , you know , the usual halloween mayhem . kevin : yeah , that sounds great , but i was supposed to hang with mariah ... mariah : that 's okay . you ca n't disappoint bella . go on . kevin : uh , well , wait till she sees my scary ghost impression . i mean , i 'll tone it down a little bit . chloe : you can not scare my daughter . kevin : i will tone it down . i do n't want to scare her . ashley : so you really let phyllis off the hook . do n't worry . ' m not letting her get to me . ashley : hmm . slap on the wrist and a special assignment ? sounds like she may be already is getting to you . jack : cost analysis of second quarter revenues -- hardly a special assignment . ashley : phyllis said it was market research . jack : okay , maybe it w -- i gave her a file . as long as it 's pure drudgery . the point is to get her tortured enough to leave the company . ashley : right , yeah , i think it 's really odd that you 're okay with her spying on you . billy : really , jack ? this stunt with manufacturing ? what the hell are you doing ? victoria : so , um , a whole month sailing in the greek isles ? sounds like paradise . harrison : you should try it sometime . does billy like sailing ? victoria : billy likes fun . that , um , ex of his , any chance they 're getting back together ? victoria : oh , god , no . harrison : well , in that case , would you mind giving me his number ? i 'd love to continue our conversation over dinner . there 's a great little place in mistral . i think he 'd really like it . victoria : yeah , he does like it , actually . we went there for our anniversary a few years ago . harrison : you 're the ex ? victoria : i am . [ both chuckle ] harrison : ah . you seem to work so well together . not everybody could pull that off . victoria : yeah , i know . i mean , what can i say ? sometimes i think we 're crazy to do it , but the building has n't fallen down around us yet , so ... harrison : well , i have to ask , why did you let a guy like billy go ? i mean , he 's the total package . style , charm , intelligence , that smoldering stare . victoria : oh , he does know how to work that smoldering stare , does n't he ? oh , well , he 's a great guy . we just did n't have a very great relationship , that 's all . harrison : well , i do n't know what broke you up . that man bought brash & sassy 'cause it meant that much to you . now , in the world of romantic gestures [ scoffs ] that beats the hell out of flowers , girl . you , uh , ever think that -- victoria : no ! no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no . we 're coworkers and we 're coparents , and that 's it . we 've actually both moved on . harrison : or maybe you just refuse to see what 's in front of you . victoria : no , i see billy very clearly . jack : get the hell out of my office . billy : this is how you 're gon na come after me , huh ? jack : i do n't even think of you . billy : by sabotaging our rollout ? jack : i have done no such thing . ashley : you 're out of line , billy . billy : really ? of course you would take his side , ashley . ashley : i 'm taking his side because you 're out of line . we handled this like we would handle any other competitor . billy : this is jack trying to stick it to me , is n't it ? ashley : you 're wrong ! do you really think he 'd be that petty ? billy : yes , i do , 'cause i slept with his wife . come on , jack . tell me this is n't personal . go ahead . jack : i 've got work to do . billy : look me in the eye . tell me this is n't the first move in a long term plan to sabotage my company . jack : i will say this one more time -- get the hell out of my office . charlie : stop it ! mattie : you stop ! cane : what are you doing ? i said to you please do n't make a mess . i said to you -- guys , what are you doing ? why do n't you listen ? mattie : sorry , daddy . cane : mattie , ju -- no , no , no , no . it 's not gon na cut it . sorry 's not gon na cut it this time . it 's not . lily : let 's get this cleaned up . come on , you guys , come on . cane : no , do n't touch that , do n't touch that . that 's important , all right ? just , just , please just stop it . chloe : it was too bad that nick could n't join us , but i guess with everything that 's going on with sharon , it makes sense that he wants to be close to her . chelsea : yeah . it must be unsettling having somebody invade your life like that . it gives me the creeps just thinking about it . chloe : so are there any leads ? kevin : eh , not really . chloe : so there 's something . kevin : well , whoever it is , they call , they hang up . we tried to trace the call but got nothing . i 'm thinking prank and the prankster got bored . chelsea : well , i do n't think dylan agrees with you . or else , why would he have nick staying there ? kevin : well , dylan is very protective of sharon . nick 's not the only one who 's watching her , he 's go the whole department involved -- regular patrols . chloe : did you ever think that maybe this person is trying to contact dylan , has a tip about the case ? kevin : we 've got a hotline at the station for that kind of thing . chloe : yeah , i know . i just think it 's weird that dylan goes out of town , the calls stop . chelsea : well , i hope they stop for good and this freak leaves them alone . [ scoffs ] how in the world did we get pumpkin all the way to the fireplace ? kevin : hey , why are you so interested in these calls to sharon ? mariah : all right . nick : you know , somehow that is just so you , mariah . mariah : you know , i am very minimalist . sharon : oh , nice ! and what about you , sweetie ? you ready ? faith : yep . nick : let 's see it . the big reveal . sharon : [ laughs ] mariah : [ laughs ] faith : ahh , ' kay . mariah : turn that sucker around .

[ meg sighs ] meg : is n't marriage supposed to be a leap of faith ? i mean , i 've been holding back all these months , waiting for everything to be perfect . maybe what paul needs is for me to show him that i have faith in him -- in us . holden : so , if you marry him -- that 's the spark that will make him do the right thing ? meg : okay , it sounded better when i said it . holden : that 's because i think it 's risky to believe that you can change someone by just loving them . meg : do n't you think you 've changed over the years because you 've had a wife whose truly loved you ? holden : do n't make this about me . meg : what ? i think it 's a fair comparison . holden : okay , if i 've changed it 's been something that 's been very gradual . over the years . not a result of something that lily asked me to do . you 're talking about something very specific that you need from a man , and if he does n't give it to you in your marriage , it does n't stand a chance . meg : okay , thanks for the pep - talk . holden : you asked me to be honest . you and paul , you have a lot of strikes against you already , but i know that you really wan na make this work , too . so , what i 'm gon na do , is i 'm gon na offer you my arm and i 'm gon na walk you down the aisle and try and muster up all the hope and happiness that i can . paul just better prove that he 's worthy of it .

[ scene_break ] amanda : because it 's the smart thing to do . that 's why . jake : the smart thing to do would be to tell david to take his offer and shove it . that would be the smart thing to do . amanda : i do n't even know what it is . jake : well , good . keep it that way . amanda : i 'm sorry . i 'm going to hear him out , and if it 's something good for us and trevor , then i 'll probably say yes , and if not , i 'll say no . jake : right , because it 's always that easy with david , right ? amanda : if i do n't even hear him out , it 'll just piss him off even more , and what if i 'm right , jake ? what if david is willing to give you more access to the baby ? are you really ready to risk losing that ? jake : i would do anything for this kid , ok , but that is not what he 's offering . you know it , and i know it . [ scene_break ] kendall 's voice : dear zach , i hope you got my last letter and that you understand now why i had to run . i know you 're worried , but you do n't have to be . i 'm safe . i miss you so much . all i can think about is being together again -- you , me , and the boys . thanksgiving . that vision is pulling me through , giving me hope . as i write these words , i know you 're doing everything you can to make it so i can come home . until then , we have a place to stay . it 's a little rundown , but -- aidan : are you bloody insane ? [ scene_break ] annie : you know , my daughter almost died . all of our attention should be focused on her . instead , ryan and erica are here playing games , finding new ways to mess with us . adam : yeah . i 'm still trying to understand why they would cook up a ruse regarding your wedding dress . annie : i do n't know . maybe it 's so close to the big day , they want me left with no options . they want me stuck walking down the aisle in a white taffeta potato sack . i really do n't know , but meanwhile , who 's with emma right now ? i mean , she 's left all alone with the secret . adam : she 'll be fine . she 'll be all right . you know , actually , this gives us a huge opportunity . annie : what do you mean ? adam : if you 're correct and this designer story is a trick , use it . annie : how ? adam : we 'll make them think they 're getting what they want . annie : so , you 're saying i should play along ? adam : oh , yes . play -- and win . [ both laugh ] [ scene_break ] erica : look . i 'm not at all sure that annie bought it . frankly , i was so afraid i would say the wrong thing , because i really do n't know exactly what 's going on here , so do you think one of you could possibly explain to me what exactly this plan is ? zach : sure . adam knows who killed stuart , but he 's blocked it out . ryan : and we have a way to bring him back , but we need to get him alone . erica : so , you want me to divert annie so you can do what exactly ? zach : so we can find out what he knows . erica : all right . the problem is that annie has n't necessarily taken the bait . ryan : she 's suspicious . you just got to give her a little bit of time . at the very least , she 's gon na love having something to hang over your head . zach : and if she does call , just get her away from chandler 's . erica : yeah , but if she does n't call , what then ? zach : we need some other bait . erica : something that annie desperately wants and something that she would never , never turn down . emma : is mommy coming over ? ryan : no , ems . your mommy is n't coming over right now . why do n't you -- oh ! you 're so heavy . why do n't you head up and finish your homework , ok ? i 'll be up in a little while , ok ? zach : hey -- ryan : annie is not getting anywhere near emma , ok ? i 've made that very , very clear . the girl is terrorized . she 's been interrogated . she 's been accused . she 's been manipulated . it 's all because of annie . zach : no one wants emma to suffer , but we do n't want kendall to suffer , either . erica : listen . what if someone were here to make sure that annie did n't do anything ? ryan : no , guys . guys , i want to help kendall -- i really do -- but i do n't want to sacrifice my own daughter . zach : what about your son ? what about your son ? he 's about to lose his mother . ryan : so , you want me to choose between my kids ? zach : no . i do n't want you to choose anything , but i want to put away annie for good , so she does n't hurt anybody anymore . erica : ok . ryan clearly does n't want to do this , and i understand why . zach : and i do n't ? i hate this . i do n't want emma to suffer . i do n't want anyone to suffer , but this is our last chance . we got to take it . ryan : it 's not happening . end of discussion . zach : so , what do we do , ryan ? what 's the plan ? ryan : i do n't know what we do .

[ scene_break ] adam : could we move this along ? jake : yes . i 'm doing the best -- do you want it fast , or do you want it thorough ? adam : why do n't you try both ? i had to cancel a brunch reservation with my fiancée because of these damned examinations . jake : well , if you were wise , maybe you 'd cancel the whole wedding . i 'm just saying , this way , you 'd never be late for annie for anything . adam : you keep your opinions to yourself . just do the damned exam , ok ? jake : ok . all right . i 've been noticing that you have not been refilling your prescription for quite some time . is there a reason for that ? that 's your heart medication . it 's very important . adam : i loathe pills . jake : but i 'm sure you like being alive , right ? heart medication , it 's very important that you take that . adam : all right . all right . i 'll refill it . jake : good . adam : are we done here ? jake : no . hold on a second . just humor me , please . terry , will you do me a favor and fill this for mr. chandler right away ? thanks . [ david walks up to adam 's room ] [ scene_break ] erica : annie , i am sure that you are just desperate for someone to stand up for you at the wedding , but i 'm probably not the right choice . annie : oh , i completely agree . always a bride , never a bridesmaid . erica : so , what is your proposition , annie ? annie : i do you the favor you could n't bring yourself to ask for , and you do me a favor in return . erica : i suppose we could discuss that in person . annie : that wo n't work for me . erica : all right , so what favor is this you need me to do for you ? annie : a simple one . you do nothing to disrupt my wedding . you let me marry adam in peace . erica : i suppose i could hold my tongue for a few vows . annie : great . so , when and where does this designer want to meet ? erica : he has a fashion shoot outside of town going on right now at lake coney , so actually , if you leave right now , i 'm sure you could catch him . annie : mm , will do . i 'll just grab the shoes i was planning to wear and go . erica : she 's on her way . zach : so am i .

[ scene_break ] annie : so , how much was the great ricky zia willing to donate in exchange for designing my wedding gown ? erica : let 's get one thing straight . it 's not you he 's interested in . it 's the publicity . if the great adam chandler were marrying a cocker spaniel , he 'd design a gown with four paws and a tail . oh , actually , maybe that 's the direction you were already going in . annie : i would n't be so snide if you need a favor from me . adam : ah , is everything all right here ? annie : just wonderful . did you get us our table ? adam : yeah . well , i 'm afraid i ca n't stay . i just got a call from the hospital , and i 've scheduled a checkup . i can postpone it . annie : oh , no , no , no , no , no , no . you should go . i want you in tiptop shape when we walk down the aisle . erica : or maybe when you come to your senses , you 'll run screaming from the ceremony . well , just remember one thing , annie . no matter who the designer is , there 's just so much that fabric can hide . adam : so , what was that all about ? annie : supposedly , some designer wants to make my wedding dress . adam : supposedly . annie : mm - him . i mean , erica is good -- she 's really good -- but that whole thing was an act . adam : oh , so we 're being played . annie : yeah , but the question is , why ? [ scene_break ] amanda : because it 's the smart thing to do . that 's why . jake : the smart thing to do would be to tell david to take his offer and shove it . that would be the smart thing to do . amanda : i do n't even know what it is . jake : well , good . keep it that way . amanda : i 'm sorry . i 'm going to hear him out , and if it 's something good for us and trevor , then i 'll probably say yes , and if not , i 'll say no . jake : right , because it 's always that easy with david , right ? amanda : if i do n't even hear him out , it 'll just piss him off even more , and what if i 'm right , jake ? what if david is willing to give you more access to the baby ? are you really ready to risk losing that ? jake : i would do anything for this kid , ok , but that is not what he 's offering . you know it , and i know it . [ scene_break ] kendall 's voice : dear zach , i hope you got my last letter and that you understand now why i had to run . i know you 're worried , but you do n't have to be . i 'm safe . i miss you so much . all i can think about is being together again -- you , me , and the boys . thanksgiving . that vision is pulling me through , giving me hope . as i write these words , i know you 're doing everything you can to make it so i can come home . until then , we have a place to stay . it 's a little rundown , but -- aidan : are you bloody insane ? [ scene_break ] annie : you know , my daughter almost died . all of our attention should be focused on her . instead , ryan and erica are here playing games , finding new ways to mess with us . adam : yeah . i 'm still trying to understand why they would cook up a ruse regarding your wedding dress . annie : i do n't know . maybe it 's so close to the big day , they want me left with no options . they want me stuck walking down the aisle in a white taffeta potato sack . i really do n't know , but meanwhile , who 's with emma right now ? i mean , she 's left all alone with the secret . adam : she 'll be fine . she 'll be all right . you know , actually , this gives us a huge opportunity . annie : what do you mean ? adam : if you 're correct and this designer story is a trick , use it . annie : how ? adam : we 'll make them think they 're getting what they want . annie : so , you 're saying i should play along ? adam : oh , yes . play -- and win . [ both laugh ] [ scene_break ] erica : look . i 'm not at all sure that annie bought it . frankly , i was so afraid i would say the wrong thing , because i really do n't know exactly what 's going on here , so do you think one of you could possibly explain to me what exactly this plan is ? zach : sure . adam knows who killed stuart , but he 's blocked it out . ryan : and we have a way to bring him back , but we need to get him alone . erica : so , you want me to divert annie so you can do what exactly ? zach : so we can find out what he knows . erica : all right . the problem is that annie has n't necessarily taken the bait . ryan : she 's suspicious . you just got to give her a little bit of time . at the very least , she 's gon na love having something to hang over your head . zach : and if she does call , just get her away from chandler 's . erica : yeah , but if she does n't call , what then ? zach : we need some other bait . erica : something that annie desperately wants and something that she would never , never turn down . emma : is mommy coming over ? ryan : no , ems . your mommy is n't coming over right now . why do n't you -- oh ! you 're so heavy . why do n't you head up and finish your homework , ok ? i 'll be up in a little while , ok ? zach : hey -- ryan : annie is not getting anywhere near emma , ok ? i 've made that very , very clear . the girl is terrorized . she 's been interrogated . she 's been accused . she 's been manipulated . it 's all because of annie . zach : no one wants emma to suffer , but we do n't want kendall to suffer , either . erica : listen . what if someone were here to make sure that annie did n't do anything ? ryan : no , guys . guys , i want to help kendall -- i really do -- but i do n't want to sacrifice my own daughter . zach : what about your son ? what about your son ? he 's about to lose his mother . ryan : so , you want me to choose between my kids ? zach : no . i do n't want you to choose anything , but i want to put away annie for good , so she does n't hurt anybody anymore . erica : ok . ryan clearly does n't want to do this , and i understand why . zach : and i do n't ? i hate this . i do n't want emma to suffer . i do n't want anyone to suffer , but this is our last chance . we got to take it . ryan : it 's not happening . end of discussion . zach : so , what do we do , ryan ? what 's the plan ? ryan : i do n't know what we do . [ cell phone rings ] erica : oh . shh . [ beep ] erica : hello ? annie : erica , it 's annie . i have a proposition for you . [ scene_break ] aidan : the d.a .

[ scene_break ] adam : could we move this along ? jake : yes . i 'm doing the best -- do you want it fast , or do you want it thorough ? adam : why do n't you try both ? i had to cancel a brunch reservation with my fiancée because of these damned examinations . jake : well , if you were wise , maybe you 'd cancel the whole wedding . i 'm just saying , this way , you 'd never be late for annie for anything . adam : you keep your opinions to yourself . just do the damned exam , ok ? jake : ok . all right . i 've been noticing that you have not been refilling your prescription for quite some time . is there a reason for that ? that 's your heart medication . it 's very important . adam : i loathe pills . jake : but i 'm sure you like being alive , right ? heart medication , it 's very important that you take that . adam : all right . all right . i 'll refill it . jake : good . adam : are we done here ? jake : no . hold on a second . just humor me , please . terry , will you do me a favor and fill this for mr. chandler right away ? thanks . [ david walks up to adam 's room ] [ scene_break ] erica : annie , i am sure that you are just desperate for someone to stand up for you at the wedding , but i 'm probably not the right choice . annie : oh , i completely agree . always a bride , never a bridesmaid . erica : so , what is your proposition , annie ? annie : i do you the favor you could n't bring yourself to ask for , and you do me a favor in return . erica : i suppose we could discuss that in person . annie : that wo n't work for me . erica : all right , so what favor is this you need me to do for you ? annie : a simple one . you do nothing to disrupt my wedding . you let me marry adam in peace . erica : i suppose i could hold my tongue for a few vows . annie : great . so , when and where does this designer want to meet ? erica : he has a fashion shoot outside of town going on right now at lake coney , so actually , if you leave right now , i 'm sure you could catch him . annie : mm , will do . i 'll just grab the shoes i was planning to wear and go . erica : she 's on her way . zach : so am i .

[ crickets chirping ] [ calm music ] [ music intensifies ] [ police radio chatter ] simone : this is a witch hunt . i 'm calling my lawyer . hayes : well , ma'am , that 's your right , but it wo n't stop us from searching the premises . then again , you may need a lawyer handy if we find any evidence of those robberies . simone : what are you talking about ? what robberies ? hayes : well , as i said , there 's been a string of them . they all share the same m.o . the suspect wears a ski mask , carries a gun and a shopping bag . simone : that could be anyone ! you have no right to target us . hayes : i was n't quite finished before you interrupted , ma'am . the suspects all have a particular marking on their hand , a scorpion . and our investigation tied that brand to your sands of eden ... what 's the word you use for it , `` commune `` ?

that 's outrageous and slightly insulting , since i -- since i just lost the love of my life . it 's not likely that i will fall for any guy in the near future or ever again . dario : i think the lady doth protest too much . nicole : because the lady is offended . dario : fine . you have n't fallen for him . nicole : no . in fact , i ca n't stand deimos kiriakis . i wish i 'd never gotten involved with him in any way , shape , or form . dario : right . huh . but you must be disappointed . i mean , you tried to work your famous magic on him , and he turned the tables on you . nicole : yeah , he did . creep . but i have to admit he 's ... turning out to be a more formidable challenge than i thought . dario : which is code for he 's got you hot and bothered . nicole : oh , my -- will you stop with that ? i just told you i ca n't stand him . i let him think i was crazy about him . i do n't know what part of that does n't compute with you . it 's an act . dario : right , so you 're alone in a bar , drinking and scowling because everything is going so well . nicole : it is . you know how i know ? deimos is trying , not too subtly , to play kate and me against each other . so my magic that you say i have is working . in defense , he 's maintaining that he 's gon na marry kate . dario : why ? what 's his plan ? nicole : i do n't know . i mean , i can see his strategy , but i -- i do n't know what his final goal is . dario : does he know your final goal ? to get him back for what he did to maggie ? nicole : he thinks it 's possible . he asked me if i was on victor 's payroll . dario : so he does n't trust you . nicole : no . but it 's not a big deal , because he does n't trust kate either . he does n't trust anyone . he has n't for 30 years . dario : so you think this marriage thing with kate is , what , just meant to freak you out , get you to tip your hand ? nicole : maybe . maybe he just likes playing us . he 's not a warm and fuzzy man . dario : you do n't think it 's dangerous that he suspects that you 're working for victor ? nicole : when he asked me about it , i covered it . i 'm not sure he believes me . but i 'm not sure he cares . dario : really ? nicole : i think it ups the ante for him . i mean , i 've never met a man with so much self - confidence . he thinks he 's invincible . dario : maybe he is ... which means you do n't stand a chance . downtown kate : did you like my treasure hunt ? deimos : yes , i did , very much . i have to admit i was a little surprised that you were the treasure . i thought you were angry with me . at least that 's the impression i had when you called off our engagement . you just ca n't stay mad at me , ca n't you ? kate : i am angry at you . i 'm furious with you . you 're going to have to calm me down . deimos : and how do you propose i do that ? kate : oh , i do n't know . you decide . but for the record , tonight 's your last chance . john : no , nothing yet . joey 's still missing , but we 're closing in him . paul : well , i knew you 'd be able to help . john : ah , just wanted to be here for steve . paul : but you 're not pushing yourself too hard , are you ?

you want your mom to have to visit you in prison ? because that 's a very real possibility if you do n't get very smart in the next few seconds . now , did you have anything to do with those robberies ? that 's a yes . look at me . you need to tell me everything right now . you need to tell me exactly what you did . joey : [ sighs ] i drove the getaway car once . and i did n't even know what was going down when i got behind the wheel . i swear it was n't until after that i even realized what i did . steve : and that 's it ?

nicole : you 're a real poet . you know that ? dario : i think you 're banking a lot on a resemblance . nicole : that resemblance is his weakness , his achilles ' heel . his memory of that woman makes him sentimental , romantic . his mind is a steel trap , but his heart ? his heart is mush . and his heart is how i 'm gon na make him pay for what he did to maggie . dario : i still think you 're playing with fire . nicole : i 've been playing with fire my whole life . kate : well , if you 'd rather not , fine .

[ sighs ] kate : you 're in a hurry to go . i have n't even packed yet . deimos : well , that makes two of us . i need to run a quick errand before we take off . kate : really ? mm . you must have minions to do those errands for you . deimos : [ chuckles ] i 'm sure you do n't want one of my minions picking out your wedding ring , now , do you ? kate : i highly doubt that there are jewelry stores open at this hour . deimos : oh , ye of little faith . kate : what 's really going on ? do n't let dust and allergies get between you henry : i mean , you hear about stuff like that all the time -- you know , students and teachers hooking up . it would n't be weird . paul : well , it would for me . i 'm sorry . and on top of that , there 's still someone out there i think about . henry : anyone i know ? i 'm sorry . i should n't have asked that . it 's -- it 's none of my business . um , well , i got to order some takeout . paul : sure , yeah . it 's nice to see you , henry . henry : you too . you know , whoever he is , he 's a lucky guy . john : no , steve did n't send me here to babysit . in fact , he does n't even know i 'm here . kayla : then why are you here ? john : well , as i started to say , i was worried about you . i did n't like the way you sounded on the phone this afternoon . kayla : i 'm fine . john : are you sure ? steve said you were suffering a subdermal hematoma . fynn : that 's why i came along for the ride . she 's fine . she 's just worried about joey . john : of course she is . kayla : so if you just came by here to see how i am and offer your support , help me out ... john : right . kayla : well , that 's good , because i think that you and steve know exactly where joey is . and i want you to take me to him right now . joey : i gave you my name . that 's all i 'm gon na say . hayes : well , if you want to talk in private , we can go outside , down to the stationhouse , and -- joey : i know my rights . i also know that i 'm not the only person in southern california who has a jacket like this . simone : he 's right . the only thing that connects him or any of my kids is the scorpion , and it 's a known fact that eyewitnesses are notoriously unreliable . do you have any actual proof that this young man was in that car ? hayes : i never said the perpetrator acted alone . and we have witnesses who say they saw a young woman in the car . joey : she was n't there . she did n't have anything to do with it . hayes : well , mr. johnson , how can you be so sure of that ? joey : because i was the one driving the car . deimos : i thought you would be pleased that i was buying you a wedding ring . kate : well ... there are rings in vegas . if the wedding chapels are open 24 hours a day , i 'm sure the jewelry stores are open 24 hours a day . deimos : kate . you 're much too classy for some ring from an all - night gyp joint on the strip . you deserve something not sold in jewelry stores , something reserved for high - priced buyers , something as unique as you are . kate : that 's so lovely . go ahead . i 'm going to have you all packed when you get back . deimos : excellent . i knew you 'd see it my way . i 'll be back before you know it . [ door closes ] hayes : son , you just admitted to participating in first - degree robbery . that 's three to nine years in prison . joey : i admitted to driving a car . i had no idea a robbery was about to take place . i was tricked . hayes : well , what about after the robbery took place ? you were n't tricked when you took off in the car with the stolen items . in the eyes of the law , that 's participation . i 'm sure the da will cut you a break after you finish telling us who robbed that store . john : well , why do n't we just slow down and think about this ? we ca n't go busting in on steve and joey without knowing what the situation is , so let 's just sit tight , wait for steve to call -- kayla : no , no , no , no , no ! you know what ? i do n't want to sit tight , and i 'm done thinking . fynn : look , i think he 's right , kayla . you know steve 's gon na call if he finds joey . john : we do n't even know if he 's with that girl 's aunt . he could be looking someplace totally different . kayla : well , then he should call and tell me that . that is my son that 's out there , the one that i raised while he was out there being a secret agent . i want you to take me there , john . now . or i 'm gon na go by myself . joey : i 'm not gon na say anything more . i drove the car . that 's all you 're gon na get from me . hayes : right . joseph johnson , you 're under arrest for first - degree robbery . jade : what ? hayes : you have the right to remain silent . if you give up that right , anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law .

deimos is trying , not too subtly , to play kate and me against each other . so my magic that you say i have is working . in defense , he 's maintaining that he 's gon na marry kate . dario : why ? what 's his plan ? nicole : i do n't know . i mean , i can see his strategy , but i -- i do n't know what his final goal is . dario : does he know your final goal ? to get him back for what he did to maggie ? nicole : he thinks it 's possible . he asked me if i was on victor 's payroll . dario : so he does n't trust you . nicole : no . but it 's not a big deal , because he does n't trust kate either . he does n't trust anyone . he has n't for 30 years . dario : so you think this marriage thing with kate is , what , just meant to freak you out , get you to tip your hand ? nicole : maybe . maybe he just likes playing us . he 's not a warm and fuzzy man . dario : you do n't think it 's dangerous that he suspects that you 're working for victor ? nicole : when he asked me about it , i covered it . i 'm not sure he believes me . but i 'm not sure he cares . dario : really ?

you want your mom to have to visit you in prison ? because that 's a very real possibility if you do n't get very smart in the next few seconds . now , did you have anything to do with those robberies ?

nicole : you 're a real poet . you know that ? dario : i think you 're banking a lot on a resemblance . nicole : that resemblance is his weakness , his achilles ' heel . his memory of that woman makes him sentimental , romantic . his mind is a steel trap , but his heart ? his heart is mush . and his heart is how i 'm gon na make him pay for what he did to maggie . dario : i still think you 're playing with fire . nicole : i 've been playing with fire my whole life . kate : well , if you 'd rather not , fine .

[ sighs ] kate : you 're in a hurry to go . i have n't even packed yet . deimos : well , that makes two of us . i need to run a quick errand before we take off . kate : really ? mm . you must have minions to do those errands for you . deimos : [ chuckles ] i 'm sure you do n't want one of my minions picking out your wedding ring , now , do you ? kate : i highly doubt that there are jewelry stores open at this hour . deimos : oh , ye of little faith . kate : what 's really going on ? do n't let dust and allergies get between you henry : i mean , you hear about stuff like that all the time -- you know , students and teachers hooking up . it would n't be weird . paul : well , it would for me . i 'm sorry . and on top of that , there 's still someone out there i think about . henry : anyone i know ? i 'm sorry . i should n't have asked that . it 's -- it 's none of my business . um , well , i got to order some takeout . paul : sure , yeah . it 's nice to see you , henry . henry : you too . you know , whoever he is , he 's a lucky guy . john : no , steve did n't send me here to babysit . in fact , he does n't even know i 'm here . kayla : then why are you here ? john : well , as i started to say , i was worried about you . i did n't like the way you sounded on the phone this afternoon . kayla : i 'm fine . john : are you sure ? steve said you were suffering a subdermal hematoma . fynn : that 's why i came along for the ride . she 's fine . she 's just worried about joey . john : of course she is . kayla : so if you just came by here to see how i am and offer your support , help me out ... john : right . kayla : well , that 's good , because i think that you and steve know exactly where joey is . and i want you to take me to him right now . joey : i gave you my name . that 's all i 'm gon na say . hayes : well , if you want to talk in private , we can go outside , down to the stationhouse , and -- joey : i know my rights . i also know that i 'm not the only person in southern california who has a jacket like this . simone : he 's right . the only thing that connects him or any of my kids is the scorpion , and it 's a known fact that eyewitnesses are notoriously unreliable . do you have any actual proof that this young man was in that car ? hayes : i never said the perpetrator acted alone . and we have witnesses who say they saw a young woman in the car . joey : she was n't there . she did n't have anything to do with it . hayes : well , mr. johnson , how can you be so sure of that ? joey : because i was the one driving the car . deimos : i thought you would be pleased that i was buying you a wedding ring . kate : well ... there are rings in vegas . if the wedding chapels are open 24 hours a day , i 'm sure the jewelry stores are open 24 hours a day . deimos : kate . you 're much too classy for some ring from an all - night gyp joint on the strip . you deserve something not sold in jewelry stores , something reserved for high - priced buyers , something as unique as you are . kate : that 's so lovely . go ahead . i 'm going to have you all packed when you get back . deimos : excellent . i knew you 'd see it my way . i 'll be back before you know it . [ door closes ] hayes : son , you just admitted to participating in first - degree robbery . that 's three to nine years in prison . joey : i admitted to driving a car . i had no idea a robbery was about to take place . i was tricked . hayes : well , what about after the robbery took place ? you were n't tricked when you took off in the car with the stolen items . in the eyes of the law , that 's participation . i 'm sure the da will cut you a break after you finish telling us who robbed that store . john : well , why do n't we just slow down and think about this ? we ca n't go busting in on steve and joey without knowing what the situation is , so let 's just sit tight , wait for steve to call -- kayla : no , no , no , no , no ! you know what ? i do n't want to sit tight , and i 'm done thinking . fynn : look , i think he 's right , kayla . you know steve 's gon na call if he finds joey . john : we do n't even know if he 's with that girl 's aunt . he could be looking someplace totally different . kayla : well , then he should call and tell me that . that is my son that 's out there , the one that i raised while he was out there being a secret agent . i want you to take me there , john . now . or i 'm gon na go by myself . joey : i 'm not gon na say anything more . i drove the car . that 's all you 're gon na get from me . hayes : right . joseph johnson , you 're under arrest for first - degree robbery . jade : what ? hayes : you have the right to remain silent . if you give up that right , anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law .

why are you interested in his business ? what is this about ? mrs. collins ? lucy : oh , um , hi . ms. coe . ms. coe . yes . dr. collins wanted me to tell you he 's sorry , but he has a patient in crisis . lucy : oh , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . you know , he always has a patient in crisis , so why ca n't this particular crisis wait till after lunch ? dr. collins asked me to tell you that he needs a rain check . lucy : a rain check ? i 'd like to give him a rain check ! listen to me , you . do not ever , ever , ever , ever fall for a doctor . michael : dad ? dad ? what the hell happened ? i saw the cops leaving . what were they looking for ? sonny : the cops did n't do this , michael . someone else did . ava : you 're not gon na believe this . but morgan thought that we were sleeping together . derek : you and me ? ava : [ laughs ] i nearly choked . do you believe that , julian ? he actually thought i was sleeping with my own brother . morgan : that guy 's ava 's ... oh , my god . derek wells is julian jerome . painting , but i - i - i painted all the rest of them . diane : and yet they all look so similar . franco : [ clears throat ] uh , yeah . what ? you never heard of picasso ? diane : sure . franco : okay , well , picasso was influenced by cezanne and pissarro . and it works the other way , too . picasso influenced , uh , lichtenstein and hockney and pollock , who , in turn , influenced anybody who wanted to drip paint on just about anything . diane : so you 're saying you were influenced by whoever painted this . franco : no , i was inspired to create my own interpretations . whoever painted that is my muse . diane : do you think your muse might get angry that you 're plagiarizing his or her work ? franco : nah . she does n't mind . she 's my biggest fan . diane : of course your muse is a woman . what 's her name ? franco : i 'm not telling you her name . why do you need to know her name ? diane : so that i can get her signature on a release or something . franco : no , she prefers to remain anonymous . diane : uh - huh . wait a minute . wait a minute . is your muse that groupie that you had in here , the one that made carly so furious ? franco : it could be . diane : something does n't compute here ! a week ago , you had this , and it 's not even yours . now you have all these . franco : hey , what can i say ? nothing gets your juices flowing like a deadline . diane : you know what i think ? i think you 've lost your mojo . i think when the doctors removed that tumor , you lost all capacity for violence , and you also lost your talent . you did n't paint one of these , did you ? not one . heather : what ? no hug ? scott : [ coughs ] i 've got a bit of a cold . i would n't want you to catch it . heather : oh , scott . if i can survive a fall off the roof of the hospital and a shadybrook all - patient production of `` brigadoon , `` i can handle the sniffles . scott : this is a surprise , you know . i - i must admit i almost did n't recognize you in this getup . heather : well , you know me . i like to mix it up . scott : well , speaking of mixed up , are n't you supposed to be locked up in the miscavige institute for the criminally insane ? heather : yes . i am . us residents like to call it `` micey . `` see what i did there ? m - i - c - i . and let me tell you something , scott . mice abound ! scott : it 's good to see that you still have your sense of humor . but if you 're supposed to be locked up there , why are you here ? heather : oh , is n't it obvious ? scott : i wish it was . heather : well , we 're at kelly 's . what does kelly 's have ? scott : chipped beef on toast ? heather : no . the world 's greatest blts ! i 'm a big fan of kelly 's blts from way back , since when rose and paddy owned the place , remember ? i was dating joe at the time . you remember joe kelly , do n't you ? scott : of course i do . heather : ah , yes . joe . with him , it was all the blts i could eat all the time . scott : a girl does need her bacon . heather : and he loved to give it to me . the bacon , scott . scott : mm - hmm . yes . heather : i was in love with joe . i mean , between the sandwiches and the sheets , we were in bliss . until you destroyed it ! scott : oh ! whoa ! lucy : you see , doctors actually do n't really care about people . they just care about their `` patients . `` case in point -- dr. silas clay . sam : huh ? silas : hi . sam : hi . silas : how you doing ? lucy : so , do not ever get involved with a doctor , because not only , for example , is this doctor a doctor , he also happens to be very insensitive perhaps to those who love him , not to mention the fact that his blood brother was a serial killer . and doc has said that studies have proven overwhelmingly in the evidence that evil runs in the dna . so there . silas : and only if doc was here , we could ask him . lucy : [ chuckles ] excuse me . nurse ! hey , i want to get a message to my so- called husband ! silas : for what it 's worth , i hope you do n't take her advice . sam : actually , it 's a little late for that . i think i have , um -- i might ha just as much evil in my dna as you do . silas : i really doubt that . sam : no , i just found out that my father is a mobster . silas : nice . how did you come by this good news ? sam : oh , my mom did some digging , and she found out that my father might have been a part of this major crime family right here in port charles . silas : here ? so , your old man 's still around ? sam : um , no . he 's been dead a long time . but it turns out that , um -- that he had a -- he had a son , and my mom ran a dna test , and -- and this mobster 's son is my brother . silas : wow . well , look , i guess on the bright side , you finally got some answers about your father , you know . it 's too bad he 's gone . bad guy or not , i 'm sure you would like to have met him . sam : silas , it 's -- it gets a little bit more complicated . my -- my father had a sister who might live here in port charles . silas : no kidding . anyone you know ? sam : i know her . yeah . um , you -- you -- you know her better . silas : sam , i just moved here . who could it be ? sam : ava jerome . derek : yeah , well , i hope you set your little boy toy straight , sis . ava : of course i did . in fact , i told him the truth . derek : what ? ava : i did . i looked morgan straight in the eye , and i told him that i find the very idea of sleeping with you revolting . which i do , obviously . derek : yeah , well , right back at you , sis . i have , uh , done some pretty adventurous things in my life , but a family member ? that is where i draw the line . ava : well , how do you know you have n't ? i mean , given how much our father slept around , i 'd be surprised if he did n't have a whole slew of inbred grandchildren . you know , he might . derek : it 's true dad did have a problem keeping it zipped , but you , on the other hand , you 're -- uh , you 're playing house with a kid who 's , uh , what -- half your age . ava : as if dad did n't have mistresses that were half his age ? derek : okay , do n't get so defensive . i told you , i admire your dedication and your creativity for going after morgan after kiki left him for michael . sonny : shawn and i got here this morning . the security guard was knocked out . place was trashed . michael : well , first , one of your shipments gets blown up , and now this ? it 's got to be the same people , right ? sonny : that 's what i 'm thinking . michael : you still think it has something to do with that julian jerome guy ? sonny : yeah , michael . i do . ava : you are oversimplifying a complicated situation . morgan has had a tough time . derek : well , i 'm moved by your compassion . i 'm sure morgan is , too . just make sure you 're keeping an eye on little corinthos lite . ava : of course . why would you even question that ? derek : uh , well , did n't you just tell me that he 's jealous of us being , uh , lovers ? ava : and i 've disabused him of that notion . derek : yeah , but for him to have that notion in the first place , he must have overheard you on the phone with me or something . in any event , he clearly knows that there 's more to our relationship than just art . ava : he does n't know . he suspected . and i told you i can handle him . derek : well , as long as he does n't know that we 're going after this father . diane : you can tell me the truth . murder , fraud , plagiarism . i 'm bound by confidentiality . franco : diane ... i just ... could n't do it . i tried so hard to get my brush on the canvas . i did everything i could think of . i closed my eyes and thought of my high - school girlfriend . nothing worked . my paintings just looked like cheap drugstore greeting - card art . and so , i appropriated another artist 's work . diane : so , i 'm writing a contract for the comeback of franco , formerly known as the artist , and you did n't paint any of these ? franco : no . diane : a groupie did . franco : yes . diane : not the most trustworthy of subspecies . what if she makes trouble for you ? franco : she 's not gon na do that . she 's my number - one fan . diane : something tells me you 're not up on the works of stephen king . franco : god , no . why ? diane : because stephen king wrote a novel , which was then turned into a movie starring james caan , who played a writer whose number - one fan , played by kathy bates -- who won an academy award for this , by the way , very well - deserved -- kidnaps him , ties him to the bed , and then hobbles him using a sledgehammer . ring any bells ? franco : no , it does n't make -- no bells . it 's nonsense . why would kathy bates hit him with a sledgehammer ? diane : because she felt that he betrayed her artistically . and when obsessed fans feel betrayed , they can become violent . are you telling me this woman is not capable of that ? heather : it 's all your fault joe left me . scott : that 's not really the way i remember it . heather : really ? you do n't remember him walking in on us together in bed ? you do n't remember him telling me i made him want to puke ? scott : i do remember that . it kind of seems like it was yesterday . but , heather , you know , come on , i mean , our affair , it was -- it was mutual , was n't it ? heather : do n't flatter yourself . scott : it was n't like i forced myself on you , like , say , the way luke forced himself -- heather : do n't say that about luke . scott : you 're right . this is n't about luke . this is -- this is about us and how we felt about each other before joe caught us in bed . heather , come on ! you know , we were crazy about each other ! i was like a bee to honey . i had so much passion for you , and it was very , very real . and you told me that you felt that way , too . come on , now . we 're not just old friends , babe . we had a lot of good times together . do n't you remember ? heather : yeah , scotty . i remember that , too . lucy : tell dr. collins that this is approximately the 20th time he has canceled a date with me . obviously he does care more about the mental health and stability of his patients than his wife . so , you can also tell him that if he ever gets around to missing his wife , then he can find me out on the campaign trail -- on the campaign trail with my very attentive , very attractive ex - husband , scott baldwin . i think i need to write this down . lucy : with whom i 'm going to be spending a lot more time with because obviously my doc never is available to me . silas : whoa . slow down . brain freeze . in what world are you and ava even remotely related and how ? sam : okay , so a dna test proved that my father is a man named julian jerome , and just the other day , you told kiki that -- that ava had a brother . silas : yeah ? sam : yes ! a brother who was very rich and had connections , one that she had never mentioned his name to you , nor did she ever mention anything about him to her daughter . silas : even so , have you considered the fact that jerome is a relatively common name ? sam : okay , i know . but have you considered the fact that ava has constantly lied about being a part of the jerome family and -- and she does lie about anything and everything ? silas : hey , look , if ava was the daughter of a mob boss , she would n't be lying about it . she 'd be bragging about it . sam : okay . i know this is a long shot , but can you just hear me out for a second ? okay . silas : sure . sam : okay , come here . so , lucy told me that julian jerome , his father was named victor , and he had a problem with staying faithful to his wife , so he had tons of mistresses . and so , he had julian , and then there were two other brothers by two other women , and there was also a third mistress , according to lucy , but she could n't remember her name . the only thing she can remember is that this woman was from new york city . silas : oh , well , that narrows it down . sam : and she said that victor would take this woman to , um , a bar named ryan 's . have you ever heard of that ? ava : trust me , julian . the only thing morgan knows about us is that we are in the art business together . he does n't have a clue about anything we 're doing , and it 's gon na stay that way . sonny : michael . michael : look , ava always told kiki that she was an only child . sonny : right . michael : why would she leave out the fact that she has this rich brother ? and the only thing i can think of is that there 's something shady about him . sonny : i am waiting on information that could prove that jerome is still alive . michael : if julian is ava 's brother , they could be working together to bring you down . and that means morgan 's caught in the middle . derek : if the kid is asking questions , then he already suspects something . ava : yes ! an affair . not a conspiracy . we have nothing to worry about . morgan will never know . derek : you sure about that ? ava : i 'm sure . morgan : maybe you should n't be , ava . looking forward to the `` franco come back from the dead `` comeback show , so that 's exactly what they 're gon na get . diane : does your number - one fan know that you 're passing off her work as your own ? heather : you said that you wanted my paintings because you admired my work , my artistic genius . and now based on what you were telling carly , it sounds like you 're just trying to pass them off as your own ! franco : yes . in fact , she 's really happy about that . diane : she is ? franco : uh - huh . ecstatic . she says that it 's the only way that the world will ever really get to recognize her true genius . diane : and this `` genius `` does n't mind remaining anonymous ? franco : well , i offered her a share of the proceeds for her discretion . diane : okay , so you have an oral contract ? franco : yeah , basically . diane : what you need is a written contract . franco : no ! there 's not gon na be a written contract ! no ! okay ? ! no ! no contract ! the bottom line here is money , okay ? there 's a whole lot of it to be made by everyone , including you ! okay , so forget about your contract ! let 's just roll with this ! and for the love of god , can we please stop talking about my muse ? ! heather : mmm ! lucy : oh , for heaven 's sake ! scott baldwin , you 're supposed to be kissing babies , not -- heather webber ? ! diane : if you go through with this show , you are perpetrating a major fraud . you are marketing work that is n't your own . franco : yeah , i 'm okay with that . diane : yes , but your buyers wo n't be . franco : then my buyers do n't need to know . diane : franco , you 're not the only one who stands to lose everything here . my head is also on the chopping block , not to mention ava jerome . franco : ava jerome ? what does ava jerome have to do with any of this ? diane : well , i 'm -- i 'm sure i told you about this . franco : i 'm sure that you did not . diane : it 's her gallery that is opening your show . franco : how long have you known that ? diane : well , i tried telling you the other night , but you were so upset when you assumed that -- carly assumed that you and i were sleeping together . uh , then i did n't want to tell you because i just thought you 'd freak out , just like you 're doing right now . franco : tear it up . you tear up that contract . there is no way that ava 's gon na make a dime off of my artwork that is n't even my artwork . ava : morgan . what are you doing here , huh ? did you follow me here , baby ? morgan : yeah , i did . 'cause i wanted to see what was going on between you and this loser . ava : [ exhales sharply ] because you were jealous ? i have to say i 'm flattered . but really , it 's unnecessary . in fact , i was just telling mr. wells here how ridiculous it is for you to suspect that we were sleeping together . morgan : oh , i know you 're not sleeping together . ava : because he 's my business partner . morgan : no , because he 's your brother . michael : dad , morgan could be in trouble . sonny : living with ava ? even if she was n't connected , she 'd still be dangerous . michael : okay , what if we 're right ? then what if ava 's brother is julian ? and what if she 's only with morgan to somehow get to you ? sonny : well , that 's entirely possible . michael : we should do something , then . morgan 's vulnerable . we got to get him out of there . sonny : you think i do n't know that ? michael : okay , then what are we waiting for ? sonny : proof . look , i already , you know , went over there , tried to get him out of there , and it did n't work . what 's gon na happen if you and i try to get morgan away from ava without it ? michael : [ sighs ] he wo n't believe us . sonny : and ? michael : and he 'll dig himself even deeper in at ava 's . sonny : okay , i 'm taking the proper steps . nothing excessive . i went over there . i warned morgan about ava . he did n't want to listen . and he 's not gon na listen to you if you go over there . michael : yeah , you 're right . he wo n't . [ sighs ] sonny : so , we got to do what we need to do , right ? what 's with the suit ? you going to a funeral ? michael : yeah . i 'm going to a funeral for my career . i had another job interview today . sonny : what happened ? they turned you down 'cause of your prison record ? michael : no , actually , they turned me down because of you . morgan : your name is n't derek wells , all right ? it 's julian jerome . and you 're trying to take down my dad ! heather : that 's what he said . scott : okay , uh , why do n't we just spread out and calm down , lucy ? lucy : calm down ? i left you for one minute , and what do i do ? i come back and find you making out with an escapee from an insane asylum . heather : oh , yeah , like you 've never tried to escape from a nuthouse . did your ex - wife here ever tell you about the time that we escaped from ferncliff together ? lucy : we were n't together . there 's no `` we `` in this . i -- listen to me -- i was completely exonerated . you , on the other hand , you deserve to be in some sort of wraparound straitjacket in some sort of padded cell with locked doors inside a big fortress with thick , thick walls surrounded by electrified barbed wire ! heather : what a coincidence . that 's where i was this morning . lucy : ohh ! and you ! you -- you -- what are you thinking ? you are running for district attorney . you can not be seen with the likes of her , much less kissing on her ! scott : yes , i know that , but i was trying to keep her from stabbing me ! and one thing led to another . lucy : oh , my god ! well , it 's a good thing i showed up when i did . okay , listen . i think what we should do is , you try to grab her purse , subdue her , and i 'm gon na call the police . heather : yes , scotty . subdue me . lucy : stop ! hey . scott : hmm ? lucy : actually , pal , i just had a stellar idea . you know what ? you 're running for district attorney . what do district attorneys do ? they catch criminals . so you need to catch heather webber . you 're the big hero of the town . you win the election . so listen , you -- you call the police . call them ! heather : he wo n't . unless he wants me to tell the police that my escape was all his idea . franco : ava jerome is a faithless bitch . she used me . and maybe i deserved it . but that little girl who i thought was my daughter did not . there is no way i am putting one penny into the pocket of ava jerome . diane : ava was resistant to doing business with you again , too . but she saw the light . she came to her senses . now it 's your turn . franco : no , i am not coming to my senses . you 're right . this is crap . look at this ! there 's no way i 'm showing this crap . come on . les call the whole thing off . diane : whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . i never said i did n't want you to show the crap . i just want legal assurances that it 's not all gon na come crashing down on your head . franco : you said it was fraud . diane : yeah , well , maybe there 's a way to work around that . right now , i have to stage your comeback . franco : what comeback ? diane , you were right . whatever talent i ever had is gone . diane : but your debts are n't . and you owe me thousands , and that 's just for the day . you see , it 's no longer about redemption or art , franco . it 's about money now . because while your -- while your civil suits are worming their way through the legal system , you got to do this . carly 's about to throw you out of this hotel . so you got to deal with ava , suck it up , sign the contract . let 's do this . franco : how 'd i get here ? i 'm broke . i ca n't paint . carly is gon na throw me out on my ear . and you 're right . this fraudulent comeback is my only shot at ever getting my life back . diane : yeah , you want to see how much worse it can get ? you blow this off . franco : okay . let 's do this . the real reason i want to do it is to show carly that i have more class and i 'm more successful and i have more heart and soul than that soulless troglo -- tr -- diane : dyte . franco : doofus , derek wells . give me the contract . let 's go . diane : fantastic ! franco : [ exhales deeply ] okay . there just better not be any more surprises . ava : morgan , baby , you misunderstood what derek and i were saying . you 're wrong about what you -- morgan : okay , i heard every word that you two said . do n't smile and act cute and try to tell me that i did n't hear it . ava : wh is with you ? always sneaking around , listening to my conversations ? i told you eavesdropping was a deal breaker -- morgan : shut up , ava , okay ? i heard that you 're the jeromes and that you 're after my father . ava : you need to chill out right now . morgan : oh , you know what ? you must be the one that blew up my dad 's shipment . sam : as it turns out , ryan 's bar still exists . silas : and where did lucy say this bar is ? sam : upper west side . silas : you sure ? sam : yeah . why ? silas : ava dragged me to a ryan 's bar a couple times . it was on the upper west side . derek : i have one question about what you claim you know about me and ava . why do you care ? morgan : are you serious ? he 's my father . derek : okay , but you 're not the only one who 's good at listening , son . i 've done some listening myself . and from everything i 've heard , you hate your father 's guts . he humiliated you at the party that ava threw for you and your new bride . morgan : and i 'm supposed to think that bothers you ? derek : you loved my niece . you kids deserved to be happy . and that night , sonny ruined any chance of happiness that you two could have had . sonny stabbed you in the back when he told kiki that you 'd been lying to her . he drove kiki to leave you for your brother michael so michael could be happy . [ scoffs ] just like every other day and night of your life , sonny chose michael over you . am i right ? michael : the h.r . rep who interviewed me , uh , said they wanted to keep their image clean . they could n't afford to hire somebody whose father is a crime boss . she did n't add -- sonny : come on . michael : she did n't add `` especially one who 's an ex - con , `` but , you know , she basically implied it . sonny : you want me to talk to this h.r . woman ? michael : no , if you do that and put the squeeze on her , it 's only gon na prove her point . sonny : yeah . you 're right . you want me to get shawn to talk to her ? michael : [ chuckles ] sonny : what do you want me to do ? anything . michael : i 'd like for you to say that i - i could have a job , you know , here . sonny : i have been thinking about it . michael : and ? sonny : but i do n't want to risk another fight with your mom . michael : dad , i told you i 'll handle mom . sonny : it 's not just that . i 've always kept you at arm 's length when it comes to my organization . michael : yeah , 'cause you 're protecting me , dad , and i understand that . but , look , i told you , this is my chance to help protect you . sonny : you 're my son . it 's not your place to protect me . i do n't want you hurt . can you understand that ? michael : yeah , dad , i understand , but , look , the coffee business is legit . sonny : yeah . and obviously somebody did n't get the message . michael : you 're gon na need an extra pair of hands to help you get things back on track . sonny : i 'm gon na float you a loan until you get a job . michael : thanks , dad , but i want to make my own money . i understand i may be unemployed as an exec , but there 's got to be something i can do . sonny : okay . i have an idea . derek : look , i 'm really sorry to open up old wounds here , although i 'm sure they still feel pretty fresh to you . look , i - i really hate to say this , but it 's pretty clear to me that your father does n't give a damn about you . ava : julian , that 's enough . derek : look , i 'm just trying to be honest with the boy , something that neither you nor sonny can manage . [ sighs ] now , morgan , i asked you a question earlier . you 've had a few minutes to think about it . i 'd really like to know your answer . morgan : what was the question ? derek : why should you give a damn about what our plans are for your father ? morgan : i - i got to go . derek : morgan . look , buddy , hey . [ chuckles ] i - i do n't want any problems here , but by the way you 're behaving , you 've got me a little worried here , kiddo . mostly for you . morgan : oh , thanks . you do n't need to worry about me , though . derek : my advice ... is to forget everything that just happened here . morgan : or else what ? that mr. baldwin , candidate for d.a . , arranged for my escape from miscavige . lucy : nobody will believe you . heather : are you sure about that ? because we had a smoking - hot affair when we were younger . lucy : yeah , during the carter administration . heather : reagan . and what 's a few years between lovers ? [ chuckles ] obviously his attraction for me has n't waned , not a bit . i 'm gon na tell the cops that scotty busted me out . lucy : you go and tell those police whatever you want to , because i will personally vouch for scott . heather : i 'll say that you were in on it with scott , too . you two have a passionate history , too . yeah , maybe you wanted to make it a ménage - a - three with me , just like a page out of `` 50 hues of blue . `` lucy : god , look at the lovebirds flying around the lovebirds ' head ! wow ! scott : you know , lucy , if you have a plan , you should tell me about it right now . lucy : it 's the same plan . same plan . you call the police , because no one is gon na believe this loony lovebird ! right now ! call . just call them . heather : yeah , of course . i 'm sure the police would sooner listen to a woman who stabbed a man because she thought he was a vampire . lucy : oh ! scott : well , now , heather , anybody could make that mistake . lucy : give me the phone . hand the phone over right now . give me the phone . i will call the police myself . give me the phone ! heather : you do that , 'cause i ca n't wait to read the headlines . `` candidate and ex - wife take advantage of a helpless mental patient . `` scott : you know what , heather ? here 's what we 're gon na do . we 're -- we 're gon na look the other way , and you can go back to the nut -- i mean the institution . heather : yes . should be making my way back to miscavige . but i 'm not going anywhere without my blt . franco : sit down . let 's do this . diane : okay , let 's . franco : [ clears throat ] you gon na -- diane : yeah , i just have to hold it steady for you . franco : what 's wrong with you ? diane : nothing . franco : why is derek wells ' name on this contract ? morgan : you threatening me ? derek : threatening you ? [ chuckles ] ava : [ chuckles ] derek : why would i threaten you ? you and your father are on the outs , right ? or i 'm sorry . did i have that wrong , what sonny did to you about driving kiki away from you so [ chuckles ] i mean , michael could have her ? morgan : no , you 're not wrong . derek : okay , so why say anything at all about what you heard here ? just let it go . let business run its course . and you and ava can , uh , pick up where you left off . sam : okay , so victor jerome brought his mistress to the very same bar that ava jerome brought you ? silas : yeah , but you ca n't throw a stick without hitting an irish bar in the new york , and ava and i frequented quite a few . sam : okay , but i kind of think it 's worth checking out . i mean , maybe someone at ryan 's remembers seeing victor or ava . silas : great . i 'm going with you . michael : okay , what do you got in mind ? sonny : uh ... i do n't know if you 're gon na like it . it 's all i got . michael : okay . try me . sonny : how about the restaurant ? michael : pozzulo 's ? sonny : yeah . i mean , you know , has nothing to do with my other enterprises . michael : i thought you did n't want any customers around . sonny : there 's an -- there 's an entrance from the street , and it 's a shame that the restaurant just kind of sits there empty . connie and i , we were gon na redo the place . we were gon na have somebody come in from the city , a chef , and , you know , make it just a nice showcase , but obviously that 's not gon na work out , so ... could work out for you . morgan : nice try , dude . i may be pissed at my father , but he 's still my dad . ava : morgan , stop and think about what you 're doing . morgan : think about what , ava ? how you 've been playing me ? derek : she was n't playing you , son . morgan : oh , sure , she was , with your full approval . and you know what ? you 've been playing me , too . but that 's okay . i 'm not gon na let you screw over my dad . i 'm gon na go tell him everything . derek : that 's not a good idea . morgan : get your hand off me . ava : morgan ! do n't do this ! morgan ! stop ! heather : thanks . i 'll never forget your kindness . and you , scott . scott : oh , lord . what ? heather : thank you for the trip down lover 's lane . i have n't been kissed like that since ... well , i do n't know when . [ smooches , blows ] franco : why is derek wells ' signature on my contract ? diane : because he 's ava jerome 's partner , and his money bought the gallery . franco : you want me to go into business with my ex and the gym rat who 's chasing carly ? diane : he 's ava 's silent partner . he 's not gon na mess with your work . franco : oh , no , no . he 's just gon na make money off of it . no ! no ! he 's a sucker puncher ! and he 's not gon na make a dollar off of my artwork that 's not my artwork , certainly not with carly on his arm ! i am not signing this ! diane : fine . give me the contract . franco : gladly ! diane : now i suggest that you find another gallery to stage your comeback . in the meantime , i 'm gon na send you my bill . franco : why would you do that ? you know i ca n't pay you . diane : my point exactly . gosh , i hope you come up with some genius solution for your financial problems before carly kicks you out of this hotel , before you 're not only penniless , but homeless , shilling your phony art from a blanket on some street somewhere . that is definitely more preferable than working with ava jerome and derek wells . [ door opens ] ava : i could n't stop him . derek : of course you could n't . ava : what is that supposed to mean ? derek : it means you 're being reckless and not nearly as savvy as you think . you should have thrown morgan out on his ass the moment he started snooping ! ava : i needed to keep him close ! away from sonny 's influence so we could turn him ! derek : oh , this is n't about sonny or our plans for him . you needed to keep morgan around 'cause you 're still stuck on that doctor . sam : you want to come with me ? silas : mm - hmm . sam : what about your patients ? silas : those leeches ? i do n't care about them . that was for lucy . sam : yeah , i know . silas : but , um , i imagine there 's a guy in a white coat that can cover my shift for a couple days . sam : are you sure ? i mean , you do n't have to go with me . silas : no , actually , i - i do have to go with you . i sold my place in the city , and , uh , i have to go see the bank and the lawyer . and besides , were n't we planning on spending some time together without any interruptions ? sam : yes , we were , but you -- you were supposed to surprise me . silas : surprise . sam : [ chuckles ] all right . silas : hey , look , we 'll go to new york , visit this place ryan 's , we 'll have a couple beers . maybe we get some answers . sam : sounds good to me . ava : my being with morgan has nothing to do with silas . derek : oh , of course not . you 're obviously with him for his sophisticated sense of style and his sparkling wit , `` dude . `` ava : and i really do n't think he 's gon na tell his father about us . derek : [ sighs ] and you also thought you had him under control . he seemed pretty determined to me . carlos , get in here . ava : why are you calling carlos in ? derek : [ sighs ] ava : what are you gon na do ? derek : what do you think i 'm gon na do ? i 'm having that kid taken out before he spills his guts to sonny about us . sonny : what do you say , michael ? you want to make this restaurant into something real ? michael : you do realize i have no experience in this whatsoever . sonny : i have no doubt that whatever you want to do , you 'll succeed . it 's just a matter of whether you want to do it . michael : yeah , i do . sonny : all right . now we just got to get your mom on board . you know how hard that is . michael : well , i 'll tell her i 'll , uh , always have a table waiting for her . sonny : you better . michael : dad , thank you . i really appreciate it . sonny : no , thank you . you 're doing me a favor . you know , after everything that has gone down , i ... it 's just great to have your son close to you . | morgan reveals to ava and derek that he 's heard everything in their private conversation which they thought he 'd never hear or know about . he knows that derek is julian jerome and ava 's brother . they are plotting to go after his father . and ava 's using him . derek ( julian ) then reminds morgan that his father does not care about him , so he should n't want to protect his father from them . morgan listens but then decides to expose their secret . as soon as michael leaves , derek calls for carlos to get rid of morgan and wo n't listen to ava 's protests that he wo n't betray them . | <s>[INST] [ door closes ] franco : this is , uh , my new work , dozen or so paintings , just like the one sebastian said he loved so much . here we are . ready to take the show on the road . diane : yes , well , we would be , except we have one major problem . franco : what 's that ? diane : you did n't paint any of this . franco : what makes you say that ? diane : because you told me that you could n't paint this one , and these look remarkably similar . how do you explain that ? scott : excuse me , madam . have you given any thought as to ... heather : scotty ? scott : heather ? heather : long time , no see , scotty b . how about a big hug for your old friend ? sam : ryan 's bar still exists in new york city . lucy : unbelievable ! okay . so , who knows ? maybe this will lead you to yet another one of victor jerome 's many mistresses . but listen , you . sam : what ? lucy : remember , i was never , ever one of victor jerome 's mistresses . got it ? sam : yes , of course . got it . lucy : okay . well , then what are you -- what are you doing ? why are you interested in his business ? what is this about ? mrs. collins ? lucy : oh , um , hi . ms. coe . ms. coe . yes . dr. collins wanted me to tell you he 's sorry , but he has a patient in crisis . lucy : oh , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . you know , he always has a patient in crisis , so why ca n't this particular crisis wait till after lunch ? dr. collins asked me to tell you that he needs a rain check . lucy : a rain check ? i 'd like to give him a rain check ! listen to me , you . do not ever , ever , ever , ever fall for a doctor . michael : dad ? dad ? what the hell happened ? i saw the cops leaving . what were they looking for ? sonny : the cops did n't do this , michael . someone else did . ava : you 're not gon na believe this . but morgan thought that we were sleeping together . derek : you and me ? ava : [ laughs ] i nearly choked . do you believe that , julian ? he actually thought i was sleeping with my own brother . morgan : that guy 's ava 's ... oh , my god . derek wells is julian jerome . painting , but i - i - i painted all the rest of them . diane : and yet they all look so similar . franco : [ clears throat ] uh , yeah . what ? you never heard of picasso ? diane : sure . franco : okay , well , picasso was influenced by cezanne and pissarro . and it works the other way , too . picasso influenced , uh , lichtenstein and hockney and pollock , who , in turn , influenced anybody who wanted to drip paint on just about anything . diane : so you 're saying you were influenced by whoever painted this . franco : no , i was inspired to create my own interpretations . whoever painted that is my muse . diane : do you think your muse might get angry that you 're plagiarizing his or her work ? franco : nah . she does n't mind . she 's my biggest fan . diane : of course your muse is a woman . what 's her name ? franco : i 'm not telling you her name . why do you need to know her name ? diane : so that i can get her signature on a release or something . franco : no , she prefers to remain anonymous . diane : uh - huh . wait a minute . wait a minute . is your muse that groupie that you had in here , the one that made carly so furious ? franco : it could be . diane : something does n't compute here ! a week ago , you had this , and it 's not even yours . now you have all these . franco : hey , what can i say ? nothing gets your juices flowing like a deadline . diane : you know what i think ? i think you 've lost your mojo . i think when the doctors removed that tumor , you lost all capacity for violence , and you also lost your talent . you did n't paint one of these , did you ? not one . heather : what ? no hug ? scott : [ coughs ] i 've got a bit of a cold . i would n't want you to catch it . heather : oh , scott . if i can survive a fall off the roof of the hospital and a shadybrook all - patient production of `` brigadoon , `` i can handle the sniffles . scott : this is a surprise , you know . i - i must admit i almost did n't recognize you in this getup . heather : well , you know me . i like to mix it up . scott : well , speaking of mixed up , are n't you supposed to be locked up in the miscavige institute for the criminally insane ? heather : yes . i am . us residents like to call it `` micey . `` see what i did there ? m - i - c - i . and let me tell you something , scott . mice abound ! scott : it 's good to see that you still have your sense of humor . but if you 're supposed to be locked up there , why are you here ? heather : oh , is n't it obvious ? scott : i wish it was . heather : well , we 're at kelly 's . what does kelly 's have ? scott : chipped beef on toast ? heather : no . the world 's greatest blts ! i 'm a big fan of kelly 's blts from way back , since when rose and paddy owned the place , remember ? i was dating joe at the time . you remember joe kelly , do n't you ? scott : of course i do . heather : ah , yes . joe . with him , it was all the blts i could eat all the time . scott : a girl does need her bacon . heather : and he loved to give it to me . the bacon , scott . scott : mm - hmm . yes . heather : i was in love with joe . i mean , between the sandwiches and the sheets , we were in bliss . until you destroyed it ! scott : oh ! whoa ! lucy : you see , doctors actually do n't really care about people . they just care about their `` patients . `` case in point -- dr. silas clay . sam : huh ? silas : hi . sam : hi . silas : how you doing ? lucy : so , do not ever get involved with a doctor , because not only , for example , is this doctor a doctor , he also happens to be very insensitive perhaps to those who love him , not to mention the fact that his blood brother was a serial killer . and doc has said that studies have proven overwhelmingly in the evidence that evil runs in the dna . so there . silas : and only if doc was here , we could ask him . lucy : [ chuckles ] excuse me . nurse ! hey , i want to get a message to my so- called husband ! silas : for what it 's worth , i hope you do n't take her advice . sam : actually , it 's a little late for that . i think i have , um -- i might ha just as much evil in my dna as you do . silas : i really doubt that . sam : no , i just found out that my father is a mobster . silas : nice . how did you come by this good news ? sam : oh , my mom did some digging , and she found out that my father might have been a part of this major crime family right here in port charles . silas : here ? so , your old man 's still around ? sam : um , no . he 's been dead a long time . but it turns out that , um -- that he had a -- he had a son , and my mom ran a dna test , and -- and this mobster 's son is my brother . silas : wow . well , look , i guess on the bright side , you finally got some answers about your father , you know . it 's too bad he 's gone . bad guy or not , i 'm sure you would like to have met him . sam : silas , it 's -- it gets a little bit more complicated . my -- my father had a sister who might live here in port charles . silas : no kidding . anyone you know ? sam : i know her . yeah . um , you -- you -- you know her better . silas : sam , i just moved here . who could it be ? sam : ava jerome . derek : yeah , well , i hope you set your little boy toy straight , sis . ava : of course i did . in fact , i told him the truth . derek : what ? ava : i did . i looked morgan straight in the eye , and i told him that i find the very idea of sleeping with you revolting . which i do , obviously . derek : yeah , well , right back at you , sis . i have , uh , done some pretty adventurous things in my life , but a family member ? that is where i draw the line . ava : well , how do you know you have n't ? i mean , given how much our father slept around , i 'd be surprised if he did n't have a whole slew of inbred grandchildren . you know , he might . derek : it 's true dad did have a problem keeping it zipped , but you , on the other hand , you 're -- uh , you 're playing house with a kid who 's , uh , what -- half your age . ava : as if dad did n't have mistresses that were half his age ? derek : okay , do n't get so defensive . i told you , i admire your dedication and your creativity for going after morgan after kiki left him for michael . sonny : shawn and i got here this morning . the security guard was knocked out . place was trashed . michael : well , first , one of your shipments gets blown up , and now this ? it 's got to be the same people , right ? sonny : that 's what i 'm thinking . michael : you still think it has something to do with that julian jerome guy ? sonny : yeah , michael . i do . ava : you are oversimplifying a complicated situation . morgan has had a tough time . derek : well , i 'm moved by your compassion . i 'm sure morgan is , too . just make sure you 're keeping an eye on little corinthos lite . ava : of course . why would you even question that ? derek : uh , well , did n't you just tell me that he 's jealous of us being , uh , lovers ? ava : and i 've disabused him of that notion . derek : yeah , but for him to have that notion in the first place , he must have overheard you on the phone with me or something . in any event , he clearly knows that there 's more to our relationship than just art . ava : he does n't know . he suspected . and i told you i can handle him . derek : well , as long as he does n't know that we 're going after this father . diane : you can tell me the truth . murder , fraud , plagiarism . i 'm bound by confidentiality . franco : diane ... i just ... could n't do it . i tried so hard to get my brush on the canvas . i did everything i could think of . i closed my eyes and thought of my high - school girlfriend . nothing worked . my paintings just looked like cheap drugstore greeting - card art . and so , i appropriated another artist 's work . diane : so , i 'm writing a contract for the comeback of franco , formerly known as the artist , and you did n't paint any of these ? franco : no . diane : a groupie did . franco : yes . diane : not the most trustworthy of subspecies . what if she makes trouble for you ? franco : she 's not gon na do that . she 's my number - one fan . diane : something tells me you 're not up on the works of stephen king . franco : god , no . why ? diane : because stephen king wrote a novel , which was then turned into a movie starring james caan , who played a writer whose number - one fan , played by kathy bates -- who won an academy award for this , by the way , very well - deserved -- kidnaps him , ties him to the bed , and then hobbles him using a sledgehammer . ring any bells ? franco : no , it does n't make -- no bells . it 's nonsense . why would kathy bates hit him with a sledgehammer ? diane : because she felt that he betrayed her artistically . and when obsessed fans feel betrayed , they can become violent . are you telling me this woman is not capable of that ? heather : it 's all your fault joe left me . scott : that 's not really the way i remember it . heather : really ? you do n't remember him walking in on us together in bed ? you do n't remember him telling me i made him want to puke ? scott : i do remember that . it kind of seems like it was yesterday . but , heather , you know , come on , i mean , our affair , it was -- it was mutual , was n't it ? heather : do n't flatter yourself . scott : it was n't like i forced myself on you , like , say , the way luke forced himself -- heather : do n't say that about luke . scott : you 're right . this is n't about luke . this is -- this is about us and how we felt about each other before joe caught us in bed . heather , come on ! you know , we were crazy about each other ! i was like a bee to honey . i had so much passion for you , and it was very , very real . and you told me that you felt that way , too . come on , now . we 're not just old friends , babe . we had a lot of good times together . do n't you remember ? heather : yeah , scotty . i remember that , too . lucy : tell dr. collins that this is approximately the 20th time he has canceled a date with me . obviously he does care more about the mental health and stability of his patients than his wife . so , you can also tell him that if he ever gets around to missing his wife , then he can find me out on the campaign trail -- on the campaign trail with my very attentive , very attractive ex - husband , scott baldwin . i think i need to write this down . lucy : with whom i 'm going to be spending a lot more time with because obviously my doc never is available to me . silas : whoa . slow down . brain freeze . in what world are you and ava even remotely related and how ? sam : okay , so a dna test proved that my father is a man named julian jerome , and just the other day , you told kiki that -- that ava had a brother . silas : yeah ? sam : yes ! a brother who was very rich and had connections , one that she had never mentioned his name to you , nor did she ever mention anything about him to her daughter . silas : even so , have you considered the fact that jerome is a relatively common name ? sam : okay , i know . but have you considered the fact that ava has constantly lied about being a part of the jerome family and -- and she does lie about anything and everything ? silas : hey , look , if ava was the daughter of a mob boss , she would n't be lying about it . she 'd be bragging about it . sam : okay . i know this is a long shot , but can you just hear me out for a second ? okay . silas : sure . sam : okay , come here . so , lucy told me that julian jerome , his father was named victor , and he had a problem with staying faithful to his wife , so he had tons of mistresses . and so , he had julian , and then there were two other brothers by two other women , and there was also a third mistress , according to lucy , but she could n't remember her name . the only thing she can remember is that this woman was from new york city . silas : oh , well , that narrows it down . sam : and she said that victor would take this woman to , um , a bar named ryan 's . have you ever heard of that ? ava : trust me , julian . the only thing morgan knows about us is that we are in the art business together . he does n't have a clue about anything we 're doing , and it 's gon na stay that way . sonny : michael . michael : look , ava always told kiki that she was an only child . sonny : right . michael : why would she leave out the fact that she has this rich brother ? and the only thing i can think of is that there 's something shady about him . sonny : i am waiting on information that could prove that jerome is still alive . michael : if julian is ava 's brother , they could be working together to bring you down . and that means morgan 's caught in the middle . derek : if the kid is asking questions , then he already suspects something . ava : yes ! an affair . not a conspiracy . we have nothing to worry about . morgan will never know . derek : you sure about that ? ava : i 'm sure . morgan : maybe you should n't be , ava . looking forward to the `` franco come back from the dead `` comeback show , so that 's exactly what they 're gon na get . diane : does your number - one fan know that you 're passing off her work as your own ? heather : you said that you wanted my paintings because you admired my work , my artistic genius . and now based on what you were telling carly , it sounds like you 're just trying to pass them off as your own ! franco : yes . in fact , she 's really happy about that . diane : she is ? franco : uh - huh . ecstatic . she says that it 's the only way that the world will ever really get to recognize her true genius . diane : and this `` genius `` does n't mind remaining anonymous ? franco : well , i offered her a share of the proceeds for her discretion . diane : okay , so you have an oral contract ? franco : yeah , basically . diane : what you need is a written contract . franco : no ! there 's not gon na be a written contract ! no ! okay ? ! no ! no contract ! the bottom line here is money , okay ? there 's a whole lot of it to be made by everyone , including you ! okay , so forget about your contract ! let 's just roll with this ! and for the love of god , can we please stop talking about my muse ? ! heather : mmm ! lucy : oh , for heaven 's sake ! scott baldwin , you 're supposed to be kissing babies , not -- heather webber ? ! diane : if you go through with this show , you are perpetrating a major fraud . you are marketing work that is n't your own . franco : yeah , i 'm okay with that . diane : yes , but your buyers wo n't be . franco : then my buyers do n't need to know . diane : franco , you 're not the only one who stands to lose everything here . my head is also on the chopping block , not to mention ava jerome . franco : ava jerome ? what does ava jerome have to do with any of this ? diane : well , i 'm -- i 'm sure i told you about this . franco : i 'm sure that you did not . diane : it 's her gallery that is opening your show . franco : how long have you known that ? diane : well , i tried telling you the other night , but you were so upset when you assumed that -- carly assumed that you and i were sleeping together . uh , then i did n't want to tell you because i just thought you 'd freak out , just like you 're doing right now . franco : tear it up . you tear up that contract . there is no way that ava 's gon na make a dime off of my artwork that is n't even my artwork . ava : morgan . what are you doing here , huh ? did you follow me here , baby ? morgan : yeah , i did . 'cause i wanted to see what was going on between you and this loser . ava : [ exhales sharply ] because you were jealous ? i have to say i 'm flattered . but really , it 's unnecessary . in fact , i was just telling mr. wells here how ridiculous it is for you to suspect that we were sleeping together . morgan : oh , i know you 're not sleeping together . ava : because he 's my business partner . morgan : no , because he 's your brother . michael : dad , morgan could be in trouble . sonny : living with ava ? even if she was n't connected , she 'd still be dangerous . michael : okay , what if we 're right ? then what if ava 's brother is julian ? and what if she 's only with morgan to somehow get to you ? sonny : well , that 's entirely possible . michael : we should do something , then . morgan 's vulnerable . we got to get him out of there . sonny : you think i do n't know that ? michael : okay , then what are we waiting for ? sonny : proof . look , i already , you know , went over there , tried to get him out of there , and it did n't work . what 's gon na happen if you and i try to get morgan away from ava without it ? michael : [ sighs ] he wo n't believe us . sonny : and ? michael : and he 'll dig himself even deeper in at ava 's . sonny : okay , i 'm taking the proper steps . nothing excessive . i went over there . i warned morgan about ava . he did n't want to listen . and he 's not gon na listen to you if you go over there . michael : yeah , you 're right . he wo n't . [ sighs ] sonny : so , we got to do what we need to do , right ? what 's with the suit ? you going to a funeral ? michael : yeah . i 'm going to a funeral for my career . i had another job interview today . sonny : what happened ? they turned you down 'cause of your prison record ? michael : no , actually , they turned me down because of you . morgan : your name is n't derek wells , all right ? it 's julian jerome . and you 're trying to take down my dad ! heather : that 's what he said . scott : okay , uh , why do n't we just spread out and calm down , lucy ? lucy : calm down ? i left you for one minute , and what do i do ? i come back and find you making out with an escapee from an insane asylum . heather : oh , yeah , like you 've never tried to escape from a nuthouse . did your ex - wife here ever tell you about the time that we escaped from ferncliff together ? lucy : we were n't together . there 's no `` we `` in this . i -- listen to me -- i was completely exonerated . you , on the other hand , you deserve to be in some sort of wraparound straitjacket in some sort of padded cell with locked doors inside a big fortress with thick , thick walls surrounded by electrified barbed wire ! heather : what a coincidence . that 's where i was this morning . lucy : ohh ! and you ! you -- you -- what are you thinking ? you are running for district attorney . you can not be seen with the likes of her , much less kissing on her ! scott : yes , i know that , but i was trying to keep her from stabbing me ! and one thing led to another . lucy : oh , my god ! well , it 's a good thing i showed up when i did . okay , listen . i think what we should do is , you try to grab her purse , subdue her , and i 'm gon na call the police . heather : yes , scotty . subdue me . lucy : stop ! hey . scott : hmm ? lucy : actually , pal , i just had a stellar idea . you know what ? you 're running for district attorney . what do district attorneys do ? they catch criminals . so you need to catch heather webber . you 're the big hero of the town . you win the election . so listen , you -- you call the police . call them ! heather : he wo n't . unless he wants me to tell the police that my escape was all his idea . franco : ava jerome is a faithless bitch . she used me . and maybe i deserved it . but that little girl who i thought was my daughter did not . there is no way i am putting one penny into the pocket of ava jerome . diane : ava was resistant to doing business with you again , too . but she saw the light . she came to her senses . now it 's your turn . franco : no , i am not coming to my senses . you 're right . this is crap . look at this ! there 's no way i 'm showing this crap . come on . les call the whole thing off . diane : whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . i never said i did n't want you to show the crap . i just want legal assurances that it 's not all gon na come crashing down on your head . franco : you said it was fraud . diane : yeah , well , maybe there 's a way to work around that . right now , i have to stage your comeback . franco : what comeback ? diane , you were right . whatever talent i ever had is gone . diane : but your debts are n't . and you owe me thousands , and that 's just for the day . you see , it 's no longer about redemption or art , franco . it 's about money now . because while your -- while your civil suits are worming their way through the legal system , you got to do this . carly 's about to throw you out of this hotel . so you got to deal with ava , suck it up , sign the contract . let 's do this . franco : how 'd i get here ? i 'm broke . i ca n't paint . carly is gon na throw me out on my ear . and you 're right . this fraudulent comeback is my only shot at ever getting my life back . diane : yeah , you want to see how much worse it can get ? you blow this off . franco : okay . let 's do this . the real reason i want to do it is to show carly that i have more class and i 'm more successful and i have more heart and soul than that soulless troglo -- tr -- diane : dyte . franco : doofus , derek wells . give me the contract . let 's go . diane : fantastic ! franco : [ exhales deeply ] okay . there just better not be any more surprises . ava : morgan , baby , you misunderstood what derek and i were saying . you 're wrong about what you -- morgan : okay , i heard every word that you two said . do n't smile and act cute and try to tell me that i did n't hear it . ava : wh is with you ? always sneaking around , listening to my conversations ? i told you eavesdropping was a deal breaker -- morgan : shut up , ava , okay ? i heard that you 're the jeromes and that you 're after my father . ava : you need to chill out right now . morgan : oh , you know what ? you must be the one that blew up my dad 's shipment . sam : as it turns out , ryan 's bar still exists . silas : and where did lucy say this bar is ? sam : upper west side . silas : you sure ? sam : yeah . why ? silas : ava dragged me to a ryan 's bar a couple times . it was on the upper west side . derek : i have one question about what you claim you know about me and ava . why do you care ? morgan : are you serious ? he 's my father . derek : okay , but you 're not the only one who 's good at listening , son . i 've done some listening myself . and from everything i 've heard , you hate your father 's guts . he humiliated you at the party that ava threw for you and your new bride . morgan : and i 'm supposed to think that bothers you ? derek : you loved my niece . you kids deserved to be happy . and that night , sonny ruined any chance of happiness that you two could have had . sonny stabbed you in the back when he told kiki that you 'd been lying to her . he drove kiki to leave you for your brother michael so michael could be happy . [ scoffs ] just like every other day and night of your life , sonny chose michael over you . am i right ? michael : the h.r . rep who interviewed me , uh , said they wanted to keep their image clean . they could n't afford to hire somebody whose father is a crime boss . she did n't add -- sonny : come on . michael : she did n't add `` especially one who 's an ex - con , `` but , you know , she basically implied it . sonny : you want me to talk to this h.r . woman ? michael : no , if you do that and put the squeeze on her , it 's only gon na prove her point . sonny : yeah . you 're right . you want me to get shawn to talk to her ? michael : [ chuckles ] sonny : what do you want me to do ? anything . michael : i 'd like for you to say that i - i could have a job , you know , here . sonny : i have been thinking about it . michael : and ? sonny : but i do n't want to risk another fight with your mom . michael : dad , i told you i 'll handle mom . sonny : it 's not just that . i 've always kept you at arm 's length when it comes to my organization . michael : yeah , 'cause you 're protecting me , dad , and i understand that . but , look , i told you , this is my chance to help protect you . sonny : you 're my son . it 's not your place to protect me . i do n't want you hurt . can you understand that ? michael : yeah , dad , i understand , but , look , the coffee business is legit . sonny : yeah . and obviously somebody did n't get the message . michael : you 're gon na need an extra pair of hands to help you get things back on track . sonny : i 'm gon na float you a loan until you get a job . michael : thanks , dad , but i want to make my own money . i understand i may be unemployed as an exec , but there 's got to be something i can do . sonny : okay . i have an idea . derek : look , i 'm really sorry to open up old wounds here , although i 'm sure they still feel pretty fresh to you . look , i - i really hate to say this , but it 's pretty clear to me that your father does n't give a damn about you . ava : julian , that 's enough . derek : look , i 'm just trying to be honest with the boy , something that neither you nor sonny can manage . [ sighs ] now , morgan , i asked you a question earlier . you 've had a few minutes to think about it . i 'd really like to know your answer . morgan : what was the question ? derek : why should you give a damn about what our plans are for your father ? morgan : i - i got to go . derek : morgan . look , buddy , hey . [ chuckles ] i - i do n't want any problems here , but by the way you 're behaving , you 've got me a little worried here , kiddo . mostly for you . morgan : oh , thanks . you do n't need to worry about me , though . derek : my advice ... is to forget everything that just happened here . morgan : or else what ? that mr. baldwin , candidate for d.a . , arranged for my escape from miscavige . lucy : nobody will believe you . heather : are you sure about that ? because we had a smoking - hot affair when we were younger . lucy : yeah , during the carter administration . heather : reagan . and what 's a few years between lovers ? [ chuckles ] obviously his attraction for me has n't waned , not a bit . i 'm gon na tell the cops that scotty busted me out . lucy : you go and tell those police whatever you want to , because i will personally vouch for scott . heather : i 'll say that you were in on it with scott , too . you two have a passionate history , too . yeah , maybe you wanted to make it a ménage - a - three with me , just like a page out of `` 50 hues of blue . `` lucy : god , look at the lovebirds flying around the lovebirds ' head ! wow ! scott : you know , lucy , if you have a plan , you should tell me about it right now . lucy : it 's the same plan . same plan . you call the police , because no one is gon na believe this loony lovebird ! right now ! call . just call them . heather : yeah , of course . i 'm sure the police would sooner listen to a woman who stabbed a man because she thought he was a vampire . lucy : oh ! scott : well , now , heather , anybody could make that mistake . lucy : give me the phone . hand the phone over right now . give me the phone . i will call the police myself . give me the phone ! heather : you do that , 'cause i ca n't wait to read the headlines . `` candidate and ex - wife take advantage of a helpless mental patient . `` scott : you know what , heather ? here 's what we 're gon na do . we 're -- we 're gon na look the other way , and you can go back to the nut -- i mean the institution . heather : yes . should be making my way back to miscavige . but i 'm not going anywhere without my blt . franco : sit down . let 's do this . diane : okay , let 's . franco : [ clears throat ] you gon na -- diane : yeah , i just have to hold it steady for you . franco : what 's wrong with you ? diane : nothing . franco : why is derek wells ' name on this contract ? morgan : you threatening me ? derek : threatening you ? [ chuckles ] ava : [ chuckles ] derek : why would i threaten you ? you and your father are on the outs , right ? or i 'm sorry . did i have that wrong , what sonny did to you about driving kiki away from you so [ chuckles ] i mean , michael could have her ? morgan : no , you 're not wrong . derek : okay , so why say anything at all about what you heard here ? just let it go . let business run its course . and you and ava can , uh , pick up where you left off . sam : okay , so victor jerome brought his mistress to the very same bar that ava jerome brought you ? silas : yeah , but you ca n't throw a stick without hitting an irish bar in the new york , and ava and i frequented quite a few . sam : okay , but i kind of think it 's worth checking out . i mean , maybe someone at ryan 's remembers seeing victor or ava . silas : great . i 'm going with you . michael : okay , what do you got in mind ? sonny : uh ... i do n't know if you 're gon na like it . it 's all i got . michael : okay . try me . sonny : how about the restaurant ? michael : pozzulo 's ? sonny : yeah . i mean , you know , has nothing to do with my other enterprises . michael : i thought you did n't want any customers around . sonny : there 's an -- there 's an entrance from the street , and it 's a shame that the restaurant just kind of sits there empty . connie and i , we were gon na redo the place . we were gon na have somebody come in from the city , a chef , and , you know , make it just a nice showcase , but obviously that 's not gon na work out , so ... could work out for you . morgan : nice try , dude . i may be pissed at my father , but he 's still my dad . ava : morgan , stop and think about what you 're doing . morgan : think about what , ava ? how you 've been playing me ? derek : she was n't playing you , son . morgan : oh , sure , she was , with your full approval . and you know what ? you 've been playing me , too . but that 's okay . i 'm not gon na let you screw over my dad . i 'm gon na go tell him everything . derek : that 's not a good idea . morgan : get your hand off me . ava : morgan ! do n't do this ! morgan ! stop ! heather : thanks . i 'll never forget your kindness . and you , scott . scott : oh , lord . what ? heather : thank you for the trip down lover 's lane . i have n't been kissed like that since ... well , i do n't know when . [ smooches , blows ] franco : why is derek wells ' signature on my contract ? diane : because he 's ava jerome 's partner , and his money bought the gallery . franco : you want me to go into business with my ex and the gym rat who 's chasing carly ? diane : he 's ava 's silent partner . he 's not gon na mess with your work . franco : oh , no , no . he 's just gon na make money off of it . no ! no ! he 's a sucker puncher ! and he 's not gon na make a dollar off of my artwork that 's not my artwork , certainly not with carly on his arm ! i am not signing this ! diane : fine . give me the contract . franco : gladly ! diane : now i suggest that you find another gallery to stage your comeback . in the meantime , i 'm gon na send you my bill . franco : why would you do that ? you know i ca n't pay you . diane : my point exactly . gosh , i hope you come up with some genius solution for your financial problems before carly kicks you out of this hotel , before you 're not only penniless , but homeless , shilling your phony art from a blanket on some street somewhere . that is definitely more preferable than working with ava jerome and derek wells . [ door opens ] ava : i could n't stop him . derek : of course you could n't . ava : what is that supposed to mean ? derek : it means you 're being reckless and not nearly as savvy as you think . you should have thrown morgan out on his ass the moment he started snooping ! ava : i needed to keep him close ! away from sonny 's influence so we could turn him ! derek : oh , this is n't about sonny or our plans for him . you needed to keep morgan around 'cause you 're still stuck on that doctor . sam : you want to come with me ? silas : mm - hmm . sam : what about your patients ? silas : those leeches ? i do n't care about them . that was for lucy . sam : yeah , i know . silas : but , um , i imagine there 's a guy in a white coat that can cover my shift for a couple days . sam : are you sure ? i mean , you do n't have to go with me . silas : no , actually , i - i do have to go with you . i sold my place in the city , and , uh , i have to go see the bank and the lawyer . and besides , were n't we planning on spending some time together without any interruptions ? sam : yes , we were , but you -- you were supposed to surprise me . silas : surprise . sam : [ chuckles ] all right . silas : hey , look , we 'll go to new york , visit this place ryan 's , we 'll have a couple beers . maybe we get some answers . sam : sounds good to me . ava : my being with morgan has nothing to do with silas . derek : oh , of course not . you 're obviously with him for his sophisticated sense of style and his sparkling wit , `` dude . `` ava : and i really do n't think he 's gon na tell his father about us . derek : [ sighs ] and you also thought you had him under control . he seemed pretty determined to me . carlos , get in here . ava : why are you calling carlos in ? derek : [ sighs ] ava : what are you gon na do ? derek : what do you think i 'm gon na do ? i 'm having that kid taken out before he spills his guts to sonny about us . sonny : what do you say , michael ? you want to make this restaurant into something real ? michael : you do realize i have no experience in this whatsoever . sonny : i have no doubt that whatever you want to do , you 'll succeed . it 's just a matter of whether you want to do it . michael : yeah , i do . sonny : all right . now we just got to get your mom on board . you know how hard that is . michael : well , i 'll tell her i 'll , uh , always have a table waiting for her . sonny : you better . michael : dad , thank you . i really appreciate it . sonny : no , thank you . you 're doing me a favor . you know , after everything that has gone down , i ... it 's just great to have your son close to you .Summarize.[/INST]morgan reveals to ava and derek that he 's heard everything in their private conversation which they thought he 'd never hear or know about . he knows that derek is julian jerome and ava 's brother . they are plotting to go after his father . and ava 's using him . derek ( julian ) then reminds morgan that his father does not care about him , so he should n't want to protect his father from them . morgan listens but then decides to expose their secret . as soon as michael leaves , derek calls for carlos to get rid of morgan and wo n't listen to ava 's protests that he wo n't betray them .</s> | 11,847 |

all i said is that we should go to the fireworks show . abigail : yeah , with mom . jj : yeah , she likes fireworks , right ? abigail : jj , unless you have extremely early dementia , you had to have remembered that mom has plans to go out on a date tonight with a guy that is not daniel , and that is why you -- you , who would 've sold your sister to make sure that mom would not go out on a date with daniel -- are being so strange about it . jj : wow , you 're sure gettin ' worked up when all i wanted to do was have a good time tonight with the family . abigail : okay , jj , you know what ? since you are so determined to pretend that this has somehow escaped you , let me repeat . mom has a date tonight with a guy that is not daniel , and she 's really excited about it , okay ? now i understand that you , for some crazy reason all of a sudden , want mom to get back together with daniel , a guy who you once considered scum of this earth . and now , you just are dying for mom to run off into the sunset with him , and get married , and sing corny love songs to each other , and just live happily ever after together , but that 's not gon na happen , okay ? that ship has sailed . door closed . jj : what does she see in this liam guy anyway ? abigail : wha -- jj , who cares ? i mean , maybe she just wants a quiet , drama - free night out with a guy that treats her respectfully . okay by you ?

you 're a -- you 're a scientist . you 're a -- you 're supposed to be a doctor . you 're supposed to deal in facts , not opinions , right ? daniel : okay , the fact that you 're a drug addict carries a lot of weight , brady . brady : okay , let 's talk facts , okay ? i resent the fact that you come into my house , and you start spewing off these ridiculous , wacky ideas , and you got eric and nicole believing this without even knowing the whole story . eric : brady , what is the whole story ? brady : thanks for asking . i 'm gon na tell you right now . was i in the park ? yes , i was in the park . did i meet a dealer ? yeah , i even talked to him because i 'm protecting jj here , people . nicole : what does he have to do with this ? brady : well , here 's the news flash . jennifer 's son , jj , is on drugs , okay ? he 's into it , all right ? i caught him talking to a dealer in a park . i went up to the dealer and told him , `` stop supplying to this kid , or i 'm gon na kick your ass . `` that 's what happened . eric : okay , so you were trying to help him ? brady : is n't it amazing how when facts come into the story , the whole thing just changes ? daniel : yeah , except the story is n't about jj . it 's about you . now , maggie is worried about you . she senses something , and now you 're not going to your meetings ? brady : no , i do n't -- why would i go to a meeting ? i do n't need to go to a meeting . i 'm good . daniel : your life came apart . kristen cut you so deep , it 's a wonder you 're still alive . and that you , an addict , you do n't really need to go to a meeting ? right there , that 's textbook . brady : textbook ? daniel : yeah , so you 're hoping that nobody notices -- brady : no , i 'm -- i 'm hoping that jj 's not on drugs . daniel : you have got to stop using jj as a cover - up because you , my friend , are better than that . will : at the -- at t e bottom of the -- you drowned him ? gabi : sort of . technically . will : [ stutters ] how is that self - defense ? sonny : [ sighs ] it 's just -- it 's -- it 's all very complicated . will : okay . well , you know what ? i give up trying to solve it , so i 'm just gon na call my grandfather roman , the police commissioner , and i 'm sure -- sonny : you ca n't do that . will : why ? i 'm not gon na keep this quiet . sonny : if you go to the police , it 's gon na make things worse . will : how can it be worse ? she killed her ex - husband . i 'm sorry , you -- you -- you technically drowned him . gabi : no , not really . i mean , he was -- he was almost dead when we pushed him in the water , and then we -- we thought about calling the cops , but then we realized that we -- will : we -- we -- you were in on this ?

since you are so determined to pretend that this has somehow escaped you , let me repeat . mom has a date tonight with a guy that is not daniel , and she 's really excited about it , okay ? now i understand that you , for some crazy reason all of a sudden , want mom to get back together with daniel , a guy who you once considered scum of this earth . and now , you just are dying for mom to run off into the sunset with him , and get married , and sing corny love songs to each other , and just live happily ever after together , but that 's not gon na happen , okay ? that ship has sailed . door closed . jj : what does she see in this liam guy anyway ? abigail : wha -- jj , who cares ? i mean , maybe she just wants a quiet , drama - free night out with a guy that treats her respectfully . okay by you ? you , who served up a hell of a lot of drama this year ? jj : fine , i wo n't say anything . abigail : great , wonderful . you are a real prince , jj . now , i think i have just the job to take your mind off things . jj : what ? abigail : my friend meghan 's gon na be here in a minute , and i really need to make sure that this application gets to the hospital before monday so that i qualify . jj : for what ? abigail : to go from part - time to full - time . when my degree becomes official , i really need this to be in place , okay ? jj : so i 'm supposed to run it over for you ? abigail : yes , actually , like a good , loving brother would . jj : so i 'm your errand boy ? abigail : i told you . meg 's coming over so that we can make plans . here . now go , and do n't lo back , or you will turn into a pillar of salt . brady : [ clears throat ] man , you just do n't give up , do you ? you 're a -- you 're a scientist . you 're a -- you 're supposed to be a doctor . you 're supposed to deal in facts , not opinions , right ? daniel : okay , the fact that you 're a drug addict carries a lot of weight , brady . brady : okay , let 's talk facts , okay ? i resent the fact that you come into my house , and you start spewing off these ridiculous , wacky ideas , and you got eric and nicole believing this without even knowing the whole story . eric : brady , what is the whole story ? brady : thanks for asking . i 'm gon na tell you right now . was i in the park ? yes , i was in the park . did i meet a dealer ? yeah , i even talked to him because i 'm protecting jj here , people . nicole : what does he have to do with this ?

brady : is n't it amazing how when facts come into the story , the whole thing just changes ? daniel : yeah , except the story is n't about jj . it 's about you . now , maggie is worried about you . she senses something , and now you 're not going to your meetings ? brady : no , i do n't -- why would i go to a meeting ? i do n't need to go to a meeting . i 'm good . daniel : your life came apart . kristen cut you so deep , it 's a wonder you 're still alive . and that you , an addict , you do n't really need to go to a meeting ? right there , that 's textbook . brady : textbook ? daniel : yeah , so you 're hoping that nobody notices -- brady : no , i 'm -- i 'm hoping that jj 's not on drugs . daniel : you have got to stop using jj as a cover - up because you , my friend , are better than that . will : at the -- at t e bottom of the -- you drowned him ? gabi : sort of . technically . will : [ stutters ] how is that self - defense ? sonny : [ sighs ] it 's just -- it 's -- it 's all very complicated . will : okay . well , you know what ? i give up trying to solve it , so i 'm just gon na call my grandfather roman , the police commissioner , and i 'm sure -- sonny : you ca n't do that . will : why ? i 'm not gon na keep this quiet . sonny : if you go to the police , it 's gon na make things worse . will : how can it be worse ? she killed her ex - husband . i 'm sorry , you -- you -- you technically drowned him . gabi : no , not really . i mean , he was -- he was almost dead when we pushed him in the water , and then we -- we thought about calling the cops , but then we realized that we -- will : we -- we -- you were in on this ? sonny : no . will : then why -- what 's with this `` we `` stuff ? what 's with this `` we , we , we `` ?

[ scene_break ] belle : just how is it my fault that philip wants to drive a race car ? kate : well , perhaps if you satisfied your husband 's needs up in the bedroom , he would n't feel the need to prove his manhood on the speedway . belle : that is ridiculous , kate . everything between philip and me is fine . we have a family , and our marriage is stronger than it 's ever been . kate : i hope so . belle : well , why in the world would you think it was n't ? kate : because you were pining away for shawn up till the day he married mimi . belle : how did you know that ? kate : how did i know it ? everyone knew it , because you were telling everyone . the only one you did n't tell -- thank , god -- was philip . he still does n't know what a little hard heart you really have . belle : so is that what this guilt trip was about -- about being a single mom at shawn and mimi 's wedding ? kate : no . everything i said to you that day was true . you do n't want to live through what i lived through , believe me . losing a child is the worst pain in the world . belle : yes , i know that . kate : i do n't want to see that happen to you , belle . belle : well , i do n't , either . kate , i am not gon na leave philip for shawn or anyone else , okay ? kate : i hope that 's the truth , because i 'm going to hold you to it . you know , i really do enjoy having you as a daughter - in - law . i just do n't want you to make any mistakes that you 'll live to regret . you mean everything to philip -- you and claire . belle : yeah . claire , you need to kiss your grandma goodbye 'cause she 's leaving . kate : bye - bye , sweetie . belle : say , `` bye - bye . bye - bye . `` [ scene_break ] philip : okay . uh , where 's my mom ? belle : she left . can we talk about this racing thing now ? philip : yeah , we can talk about this racing thing . i have the proposal here . i wanted her to see it , too . belle : well , she 's not happy about it , and neither am i . look , your life is far too valuable to me to let this happen . and one more thing -- just a minor thing . we have a daughter -- a daughter who almost lost you once before she even got the chance to know you . claire , baby -- philip : let go , honey . let go . let go . belle : when you were in the war , i was so worried about you , and now that everything is finally settling down and i can actually think of a future with you , philip , please do n't let me lose you . philip : i 'm not going anywhere , honey . you know that .

[ scene_break ] chelsea : there 's no way that hope or bo are gon na find out what i did , because they 're not talking to each other . frankie : you know you 're whistling past the graveyard , do n't you ? chelsea : whatever that means . look , i talked to my dad this morning , and he said that when he went to morgan island , he saw hope and patrick kissing . and then he told me and my mom that she said she wanted nothing to do with him . frankie : but they do love each other , and eventually they 're gon na realize that . they 're gon na work through their problems . chelsea : did n't you tell me that it was in my best interest , legally , to not say anything about what i 've done ? frankie : yeah . as your attorney , i ca n't say anything . but if you step up to the plate , admit what you 've done , they might forgive you . chelsea : yeah , right . frankie : on the other hand , if you do n't and they find out on their own , things are gon na get a lot worse and you know it .

[ scene_break ] philip : i just did n't think you 'd be so upset about this . i 'm not gon na do anything if i did n't think i 'm gon na be okay . i 'm certainly not gon na do anything that 's gon na take me away from you and claire . look , i joined the marines to serve my country , yes , but i also did it for the thrill , and i still need that . my life may have changed a lot , but i have not changed . i think it would be a good way to set an example for people with disabilities . it would be a good way to do it . belle : well , good . then why do n't you just go run a 10k or even a marathon ? or you can just stay here and take care of the baby and go visit hospitals -- anything but racing a car 180 miles an hour . philip : actually it 's more like 200 . belle : oh , great . philip : there 's something else i got to tell you , too . [ scene_break ] shawn d. : mmm . i like yours better . mimi : it 's way better . shawn d. : did you really mean it when you said you wanted to name our son -- if we have a son -- after zack ? mimi : of course i did . but if you think it 'll be too hard -- shawn d. : no , no . i - i just keep thinking about it , and i think the reason i really believe this is all gon na work out is because i believe my brother is looking out for us . when we were praying for claire for a miracle , it turned out he was the miracle . i do n't know . it 's just so hard to understand . mimi : i know . shawn d. : you know , he would have been an uncle at 5 years old . you know how stoked he would have been ? he would have been so happy for us . and just to think that this all came about because a bartender overhearing our conversation at the green mountain lodge and then talking about the in vitro . it 's like this was meant to be . so , yeah , if you want to name our son after my brother , i would love that . i mean , this is a miracle . i think god is gon na bless us with our own child .

[ scene_break ] bo : hope , we got to talk . we got to figure out where we stand with each other . jennifer : i 'll give you some privacy , okay ? hope : [ sighs ] there 's nothing left to talk about , nothing you can say that 's gon na change anything . bo : hope -- hope : get your hands off me , you liar . that 's all you 've done is lie to me . bo : how could you -- hope : you could n't just stop making a fool of me , could you ? you could n't stop yourself . bo : that 's not what i was doing , and you know it . hope : no , i do n't . i do n't know that at all . but what i do know ... is that your daughter was willing to let you and billie sacrifice everything to save her own skin . ca n't you see what little respect your daughter has for you ? bo : after the accident , we were all in shock , hope . i made a terrible mistake . i was trying to take care of that and you at the same time . i would have told you everything . hope : you should have been honest with me from the start , from day one . now , when you showed up on morgan island , you knew that chelsea 's trial date had been moved up . so if jennifer had n't told me on the phone , i would n't have known about that . bo : i would have told you . hope : oh ? bo : you called me , told me you were in danger . my first priority was to protect you from lockhart . hope : john and i both assured you that i was fine . but instead of being honest and truthful and telling me that chelsea 's trial date had been moved up , you make this big pitch for me to forgive you . but now i know why . because hoping that if i did , maybe i 'd be a little more lenient with your daughter . bo : that 's not true . hope : yes , it is . how am i supposed to believe anything you say when all you do is lie to me ? but you know what ? i 'm here . i 'm back in salem . and it is so hard . but i have to be here because i need justice for my little boy . bo : we have both done things that we regret . [ scene_break ] hope : i still do n't know if i should do this . jennifer : you 're here now , so if for no other reason , just go inside and make sure bo 's okay . hope : my god , he must have been drunk . he did n't even close the door . jennifer : well , even better . you can just go right in . i 'll wait right here for you . go on . hope : bo ?

and you knocked me out ? i 'm ashamed of both of you . calvin : do you acknowledge that you have a problem with alcohol ? luke : ugh ! oh , jeez . i acknowledge that i was knocked out and brought here against my will . i acknowledge that i am plenty pissed off about it . that i got a jackhammer coming through my skull . so i 'm in no mood to play your little game . just cut me loose and let 's get out of here . lucky : if i untape you , will you stay and hear us out ?

[ sighs ] you were more than self - destructive . you 're suicidal . and that scares me . you 're not my dad . you 've been replaced by a man who does n't care about me or anybody else ; least of all himself . preparing for the intervention made me realize what i saw that night was your illness . it 's taken over , and it 's not ok . and i 'm asking you to get yourself help . because we 've only just begun , and i need a dad in my life . luke : i 'm sorry , lulu . i 'm sorry . but you are wrong . ethan : luke ... on one fateful night ; a night that began like any other , i decided to rob the haunted star . and that night i met you staring down the business end of a shotgun . and nothing has been the same since . you see , that night , i met a running mate . a partner in crime . i met a best friend and a mentor and eventually , a father . and you 've been the best . the best man i 've ever known , and i love you . your total acceptance and your encouragement have meant the world to me over these few short years . and so i watched you . i wanted to learn to grow , to laugh , and to maybe soak up some of the pearls of wisdom you just left laying around . but what i 've seen since the accident is only your anguish . i 've seen your grief and your despair . and i 'm terrified that you are losing control . tracy : and if you drugged us , luke spencer , so that you could get me to marry you ... luke : you think that i would drug myself ? come on ! tracy : it 's coming back to me . you dared me to keep up with you . luke : that 's one of the things i love most about you , popsicle . you can not resist a challenge . ethan : ok , what are you hunting for down there ? truffles ? luke : no , a treasure of a different snort . maya : you and luke were grabbing cocktails faster than ethan and i could confiscate them . tracy : do n't you mean guzzle them ? ethan : we had to drink them to keep them away from you and luke . tracy : tell me i 'm not married to him . luke : you are , sweetheart . tracy : how would you know ? luke : ta - da ! ha ha . this is what i was looking for . this is the treasure i was looking for . this is our sweet marriage license of my wife . ethan : this thing , whatever this is , this is the hardest battle you 've ever had to fight . and i 'm asking you to rise up and let me fight it with you . because i know how hard it is to step back , and i know how easy it would be to just let go . i do . luke , please . just come back to us . just get that spark back in your eyes . and get some help . luke : i am so disappointed in you . all that flair and potential . you 've traded it in for 12-step psycho babble that you do n't even believe . i know you do n't . this is a con , is n't it ? you 're conning me , you 're conning them . huh . well , when you decide to drop the act and get back to yourself , you come to the star and we 'll hoist a few . and i 'll welcome -- sonny : i 'm sorry , i know i 'm supposed to wait my turn . you would do anything to save the life of someone you love . why ca n't you save your own , luke ? i do n't want to be here . but i 'm here because you 're my friend and i care about you and i respect you . i got ta tell you , luke , one of the things that i admire most about you is how good of a father you are . and i know you do n't agree 'cause you underestimate everything , but i 'm sure i can get your kids to back it up . i know what i saw . the way you would balance being a father , being friends . it 's not easy to do , i know that . you nailed it . luke : hey , sonny , you got any ice there left in that -- sonny : yeah . there you go . i do n't want any part of this . luke : now open the ice against your ear . lucky : ok . luke : until it gets numb . lucky : i will do . luke : and we 'll be in business . lucky : ah , first aid kit . ok , this is just cold . sonny : oh , you guys , you guys are just ... luke : boys and girls , do n't try this at home . this should only be done by a trained professional . sonny : i do n't know if i ever told you this , but watching you with lucky having so much fun ... made me want to be a dad . and i know you to be a man of principle and integrity . do n't let this disease get the best of you . get whatever help you need and take it down with you . nikolas : remember when i got shot in the neck ? was lying there bleeding to death , i could n't breathe , thought i was going to die . you said everything is going to be all right . and i believed you . you rode with me in the ambulance , you held my hand . and that was the first glimpse into the real man that you are , luke . and i appreciate your wisdom , your great sense of humor , and your ability to accept people just for who they are . but the alcohol is robbing you of that . it 's taking that away from you . i ca n't tell you how many times you 've shown up drunk and gone off on me just to do it . carly : i 'm not going to get all sentimental and mushy because you hate that and it 's not my style . so i 'm going to give it to you straight . you 're an alcoholic and you 're in denial . and the alcohol holds you at a distance from people who love you . stops you from showing up when it matters . and numbs you to the point where you do n't care . so this man who we all love and , yes , luke , i do love you , will be lost to us all , for good . so i 'm asking you to fight back . fix yourself and get treatment . luke : let me ask you something . if a bunch of a well - meaning but misguided people ask you to prove that you love them by giving up everything you are , what would you do ?

and you knocked me out ? i 'm ashamed of both of you . calvin : do you acknowledge that you have a problem with alcohol ? luke : ugh ! oh , jeez . i acknowledge that i was knocked out and brought here against my will . i acknowledge that i am plenty pissed off about it . that i got a jackhammer coming through my skull . so i 'm in no mood to play your little game . just cut me loose and let 's get out of here . lucky : if i untape you , will you stay and hear us out ?

calvin : as i said , everyone here loves you , everyone here is concerned . luke : yeah , i heard that , they 're all concerned . calvin : they want to express that love and concern , and tell you how alcohol is affecting your relationships . so to that end , i 've asked your family to put their feelings on paper in the form of a letter . luke : a letter . calvin : mm - hmm . luke : great . so you 've all lost your collective spine as well as your sanity . you ca n't just talk to me , you ca n't look me in the face and tell me what you have to say . you have to hide behind letters and this jerk ? i tell you what -- put it in a postcard and send it to me general delivery morocco . calvin : in order for this to work , each family member or friend needs to read their letter to you . luke : yeah , well , this is what i 'm trying to tell you , calvin . it ai n't gon na work . these people are n't here because of my drinking . booze is just easier for them to wrap their heads around then the fact that i killed a child . now if you want to come at me about that , bring it on . you want to say something to me about that , well , i 'll take whatever you got . but do n't -- do n't do this excuse about drinking . because i am not an alcoholic ! and no amount of collective concern is going to make me one . calvin : lulu will read her letter first . luke : i 'm sorry , baby . this is so wrong . your brothers and tracy manipulated you into this sideshow . i can tell you do n't want to be here . and i know you 're under a lot of pressure . lucky 's had a terrible loss and you love him and you want to support him . but this is not the way to do it . calvin : lulu wrote a letter , and she needs to read it . luke : you do n't have to , baby . lulu : dear dad , i love you so much . even though you were n't around during a lot of my childhood , seems as though the times in my life that are most memorable all share a common thread -- they involve you . lulu : i told you that i hated ice fishing , which is true . i hated sitting around and freezing . but what i did n't tell you is that i actually could n't wait to do it again with you . because that was our connection . and nothing else mattered to me except being with you . and when you had the club and you would take me to your office , i remember you would pull out old blues albums and you 'd sit me between two speakers and you 'd tell me to listen and learn . but i did n't get into it . i remember watching you . and although you were stuck with me , i was happy just being near you . took me a long time to accept that the memories closest to my heart involved a father who was rarely around . but it 's obvious that as much as i resented you , there 's something about you that i ca n't hate . you 're my father . therefore , you 're my world . and it 's always been important that you think highly of me and that you respect me , and as our relationship has grown stronger , i know that you do . and you 've supported me unconditionally . luke : if you 've still got any questions or reservations , we do n't have to do this today . we could still go to europe . lulu : [ chuckles ] i would n't dream of interrupting your extended adolescence by making you a grandfather . luke : do n't turn this decision on me , lulu , not even as a joke . if you 've got any doubts , let 's stop right here . lulu : i do n't . luke : ok . lulu : um , you know , you 've -- you 've been great . better than i could have ever imagined in my wildest dreams . and i 'm never going to forget how you showed up and you stood up for me . luke : what are you saying ? you want to do this alone ? lulu : i 'll call a cab when it 's over . luke : no , no , honey . i ca n't just leave you here . i 'll wait in the car . lulu : listen , this is n't exactly the kind of thing that a girl wants to go through with her dad . no offense . luke : ok , if that 's what you want . lulu : i love you . luke : i love you , sweetheart . lulu : you 're the only one who helped me through one of the hardest times of my life . when i went to write down what you mean to me in a letter , i realized that you 're not the man that i accepted back in my life . when you were at the haunted star and you trashed it and you covered it in gasoline ... [ sighs ] you were more than self - destructive . you 're suicidal . and that scares me . you 're not my dad . you 've been replaced by a man who does n't care about me or anybody else ; least of all himself . preparing for the intervention made me realize what i saw that night was your illness . it 's taken over , and it 's not ok . and i 'm asking you to get yourself help . because we 've only just begun , and i need a dad in my life . luke : i 'm sorry , lulu . i 'm sorry . but you are wrong . ethan : luke ... on one fateful night ; a night that began like any other , i decided to rob the haunted star . and that night i met you staring down the business end of a shotgun . and nothing has been the same since . you see , that night , i met a running mate . a partner in crime . i met a best friend and a mentor and eventually , a father . and you 've been the best . the best man i 've ever known , and i love you . your total acceptance and your encouragement have meant the world to me over these few short years . and so i watched you . i wanted to learn to grow , to laugh , and to maybe soak up some of the pearls of wisdom you just left laying around . but what i 've seen since the accident is only your anguish . i 've seen your grief and your despair . and i 'm terrified that you are losing control . tracy : and if you drugged us , luke spencer , so that you could get me to marry you ... luke : you think that i would drug myself ? come on ! tracy : it 's coming back to me . you dared me to keep up with you . luke : that 's one of the things i love most about you , popsicle . you can not resist a challenge . ethan : ok , what are you hunting for down there ? truffles ? luke : no , a treasure of a different snort . maya : you and luke were grabbing cocktails faster than ethan and i could confiscate them . tracy : do n't you mean guzzle them ? ethan : we had to drink them to keep them away from you and luke . tracy : tell me i 'm not married to him . luke : you are , sweetheart . tracy : how would you know ? luke : ta - da ! ha ha . this is what i was looking for . this is the treasure i was looking for . this is our sweet marriage license of my wife . ethan : this thing , whatever this is , this is the hardest battle you 've ever had to fight . and i 'm asking you to rise up and let me fight it with you . because i know how hard it is to step back , and i know how easy it would be to just let go . i do . luke , please . just come back to us . just get that spark back in your eyes . and get some help . luke : i am so disappointed in you . all that flair and potential . you 've traded it in for 12-step psycho babble that you do n't even believe . i know you do n't . this is a con , is n't it ? you 're conning me , you 're conning them . huh . well , when you decide to drop the act and get back to yourself , you come to the star and we 'll hoist a few . and i 'll welcome -- sonny : i 'm sorry , i know i 'm supposed to wait my turn . you would do anything to save the life of someone you love . why ca n't you save your own , luke ? i do n't want to be here . but i 'm here because you 're my friend and i care about you and i respect you . i got ta tell you , luke , one of the things that i admire most about you is how good of a father you are . and i know you do n't agree 'cause you underestimate everything , but i 'm sure i can get your kids to back it up . i know what i saw . the way you would balance being a father , being friends . it 's not easy to do , i know that . you nailed it . luke : hey , sonny , you got any ice there left in that -- sonny : yeah . there you go . i do n't want any part of this . luke : now open the ice against your ear . lucky : ok . luke : until it gets numb . lucky : i will do . luke : and we 'll be in business . lucky : ah , first aid kit . ok , this is just cold . sonny : oh , you guys , you guys are just ... luke : boys and girls , do n't try this at home . this should only be done by a trained professional . sonny : i do n't know if i ever told you this , but watching you with lucky having so much fun ... made me want to be a dad . and i know you to be a man of principle and integrity . do n't let this disease get the best of you . get whatever help you need and take it down with you . nikolas : remember when i got shot in the neck ? was lying there bleeding to death , i could n't breathe , thought i was going to die . you said everything is going to be all right . and i believed you . you rode with me in the ambulance , you held my hand . and that was the first glimpse into the real man that you are , luke . and i appreciate your wisdom , your great sense of humor , and your ability to accept people just for who they are . but the alcohol is robbing you of that . it 's taking that away from you . i ca n't tell you how many times you 've shown up drunk and gone off on me just to do it . carly : i 'm not going to get all sentimental and mushy because you hate that and it 's not my style . so i 'm going to give it to you straight . you 're an alcoholic and you 're in denial . and the alcohol holds you at a distance from people who love you . stops you from showing up when it matters . and numbs you to the point where you do n't care . so this man who we all love and , yes , luke , i do love you , will be lost to us all , for good . so i 'm asking you to fight back . fix yourself and get treatment . luke : let me ask you something . if a bunch of a well - meaning but misguided people ask you to prove that you love them by giving up everything you are , what would you do ? carly : we 're not asking you to give up who you are . we 're asking you to give up the booze . calvin : tracy . luke : this is really low , wife . but you 've managed to prove again that you can outmaneuver me . tracy : we 're not playing games , luke . we 're trying to save your life . tracy : you 're sick . you need help . luke : i 'm healthy as an ox . calvin : do n't engage . read the letter . luke : who are you ? ! butt out . i 'm talking to my wife . do n't do this . do n't hide behind that letter . well - chosen words . just say what you have to say to me . that 's how we do it . tracy : you 're my unexpected miracle . i have loved loving you . learning how to love from you . love is a meeting of the minds . a recognition of spirit . a conversation between two hearts . it requires appreciation and acceptance . but i do not accept your disease . i know that i have done my part to enable you . luke : oh , enable . a buzz word . i 'm so sick of hearing buzz words today . tracy : we began on a drunken rampage . which is why , in my warped thinking , i thought that you could only love me if you were drunk . but that changed when helena kidnapped us . and i was at my worst and you loved me . luke : tracy angelica quartermaine spencer . you have transformed my life . not just with the bank accounts and the mansion and the corporate jets . i mean , all that 's nice , but none of that could keep me here with you if i did n't want to be . it 's you , darling . it 's you . you make my life worthwhile . it 's because of you that i give a damn . i love you with all my heart . my spanky . my sweetheart , my wife . tracy : that 's why it was so important that you be sober for our wedding . alcohol is stealing your soul . you may have said the vows , but i 'm married to the booze . if you were diagnosed with cancer , i would expect you to seek treatment . i expect you to seek treatment for alcoholism . get help , luke . i ca n't carry this marriage by myself . luke : i did marry you sober . but more than that , i married you pure . with no agenda . and you ca n't say that . you want to change me . i 'm not ok the way i am ?

( sighs ) i guess she did n't want to upset you any more . you already had a lot of tension with this stuff going on with rick , and so i agreed with her . but then later i realized it was wrong . taylor : it is just a -- you know , it 's a clerical error . it 's -- you could fix it if you really wanted to . as much as i wish rick would just leave steffy alone , i - i do n't see that happening unless he has to , and brooke is n't doing anything to help us .

( laughs ) ridge : i ca n't deny brooke and i have seen better days . i 'm just frustrated with the way she always defends her son . i mean , what he did today and her reaction to it -- taylor : oh , that was a slap in your face . ridge : definitely brings up some issues , does n't it ? taylor : it 's the same issues you 've been having for a long time now . ( scoffs ) my god , that video was a sick manipulation . ridge : i always believed that we could get through anything , but when she continues to support her son and his involvement with our daughter , no matter how much i 've tried to make my feelings known and understood by her -- it 's just mind - boggling to me . i ... i did n't expect this from brooke . [ scene_break ] donna : that design takes me back a few years . it reminds me of your father . you 're a lot like him , are n't you ? bill : oh , i do n't know about a lot like him , but they do say the apple does n't fall far from the tree . donna : especially the rotten ones . so i guess i should n't be so surprised with your behavior . did you know your father once had nude photos taken of me for a magazine ? bill : you had quite an impact on him , which is why he wrote you into the will . donna : and he got the last laugh . another man after his own brand of humor . bill : my father appreciated you , donna , just like i appreciate you . you 're my kind of woman . you go after what you want . you seduce eric , give him the greatest sex of his life , and bam , you 're the new queen of forrester . you go after what you want , and you get it . donna : my marriage is n't about sex . bill : oh , come on . you 've got to have epic skills in the sack . and i am dying to experience them . donna : ( laughs ) you are unbelievable . nothing is ever going to happen with us , you got that ? bill : ( chuckles ) playing hard to get . one of my favorite characteristics in a woman . it 's all right . i do n't mind chasing you a little bit , as long as i do n't have to work too hard . it 'll make it all the more worth while when i do get you , because i always get what i want . donna : you need a new rap . and this was the most unprofessional meeting that i have ever had . bill : this is a meeting you 'll never forget . donna : and what is that supposed to mean ? okay , why did you come here , bill ? what -- what do you really want with eric and me ? [ scene_break ] rick : ( sighs ) i wanted to do something good , something right . i wanted to pay tribute to -- to phoebe , but of course , ridge -- he does n't cut me a break . brooke : he does n't believe that your intentions were sincere . rick : of course he does n't . he thinks i 'm manipulating steffy again because i want to get back together with her , but this was a peace offering for ridge , for steffy , for their whole family . steffy : and it was such a beautiful tribute . i have n't felt this close to phoebe since -- well , since , we lost her . rick : when i saw your face when you were watching this video , i 'm sorry , but i allowed myself to believe that you and i could get back together again , that we had a chance . but of course , now ridge pulls the rug out from underneath us . steffy : i did n't make any promises on how he would react . i warned you not to get your hopes up . rick : i know that you want to be with me just as much as i want to be with you . steffy : yeah , i do . rick : so what 's keeping us apart ? steffy : it 's something that my dad needs . he needs a distance between us and phoebe 's death . he ca n't and he wo n't accept that you were behind the wheel when phoebe died . rick : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] taylor : brooke 's never lost a child . she has -- she has no idea the kind of pain that we 're dealing with . no , we lost our child . we lost phoebe in a tragic accident . ridge : you mean rick killed her . taylor : she does n't deserve to be with somebody like him . she 's still healing from losing her sister . i mean , has n't she been through enough ? ridge : i do n't think he could get any worse . taylor : oh , with a narcissist , anything is possible . he thinks he 's the center of the universe , that the world revolves around him . ridge : what rick pulled today was sick , and brooke bought into it . ridge : i keep saying that things are insurmountable with brooke and me , but if she continues to push this , and if she continues to support her son and his involvement with our daughter ... i just do n't know if brooke and i are gon na be able to make it . [ scene_break ] donna : you have something against eric . i know your father did . bill : my father admired eric 's wife , just as i admire you . he 's carved himself quite a little empire here in los angeles -- a beautiful wife , toast of the fashion world . donna : look , if you admire eric , and you 're so attracted to me , why are you teaming up with stephanie to come after us ? bill : does n't make any sense , does it ? donna : no . no , i believe that there is a reason for everything that you do . you have teamed up here with an angry , jilted woman . and it 's only gon na end up making you look bad in the end . bill : i never look bad in the end , and your ending does n't look too bad either . donna : ( scoffs ) will you stop ? do you really want me to believe that you came here to l.a. , the land of the young and the beautiful , to hit on me , a married woman ? what is it about you that attracted you to me ? or is it that i 'm eric 's wife ? you want me , but there 's more . what is it , `` dollar bill `` ?

[ laughs ] but if you ever get a chance , you got to tell sage the juliet story . sage : probably would n't be able to remember all those details anyway . adam : probably not . sage : [ laughs ] adam : probably not . sage : why do n't you tell us ? adam : well , hell . now , there 's an idea . why do n't you tell the story ? i could use a laugh about right now , anyway . nick : okay . [ laughing ] so , it started out as a good deed . one of our friends was responsible for securing the boat , but he did not moor her properly . sage : so it drifted . nick : oh , yeah . it drifted . so , gabe and this other dude jump into the lake , swim out there , and try and retrieve her . adam : i just blindly jumped into the lake , you know ? 'cause that 's the kind of guy i am . sage : yeah . you are . [ chuckles ] so how did it crash or ... nick : problem was , once gabe got on the boat , he just had to find out what she could do , so he got it up to full speed , hit some debris in the water , and then shewm ! pow ! adam : killed juliet . nick : you killed her . sage : [ sighs ] nick : there 's a lot of stories like that . adam : i 'm afraid that 's probably true . billy : chelsea , it 's okay . you want to keep adam 's memory front and center for your son . chelsea : it 's important to me , billy . billy : i understand . chelsea : no , you do n't , because i do n't think i really understood until now . i want my son to be proud of the good things that his father did . i want connor to know how much his dad adored him . billy : then we will make sure of that . chelsea : but i also want my son to have a father who 's a man of honor and strength and compassion . so , i do n't think that connor could have chosen a better person to call daddy tonight . billy : [ chuckles ] you make me sound like some kind of role model . chelsea : well , you are , to connor . billy : chels , i should n't be . i mean ... i 've made so many mistakes . chelsea : well , so have i . we 'll just teach him to do better than we did . billy : then you can count on me . jack : it 's the truth ! you ca n't deny it ! chelsea : [ sighs ] victor : do not presume to dictate to me about my children , my grandchildren . chelsea : what is going on out here ? victor : jack is being ... rather impolite , rather rude about adam 's death . jack : hardly . victor : hardly ? you spoke about him in the present tense . as if he were here . jack : i misspoke . victor : well , that 's utterly inappropriate ! michael : i thought you understood how i feel about this . lauren : honey , i understand not telling gloria . but christine ? no . michael : it 's private , lauren . lauren : it is cancer , and you are already feeling pain and having symptoms . do you think you could keep that from the chief of police and the da ? michael : if paul and christine randomly ask me if i have cancer , then i will tell them the truth . lauren : why are you waiting ? michael : why rush this ? lauren : because they love you , and they 're our friends . michael : i want to wait . lauren : [ scoffs ] how do you think they 're gon na feel when they find out what you have gone through and we did n't say anything ? what if the tables were turned ? michael : [ sighs ] you know what i hate about this ? i hate that if i tell paul and christine , then this dinner just ca n't be dinner . that if i talk about sports or movies , people will just be thinking about my cancer . lauren : we need to be around people that we do n't have to put an act on for . they were with us during the hardest time of our life . michael : i know that . lauren : we need their support . and they need to know that we turned to them when we needed help . michael : `` we `` ? lauren : yes . michael : [ sighs ] sorry . sorry . i forget that i 'm not the only one facing this . lauren : oh , honey , believe me . i would love , love to block this out and pretend it was n't happening .

[ sighs ] it will not be easy saying the words . lauren : well , just , you know , say it fast . then we 'll just talk about david fincher films . maybe no one will notice . michael : you really do love me , do n't you ? lauren : do n't you ever forget it . michael : [ chuckles ] hey ! lauren : hi . christine : you two seem happy . hi . lauren : hi , sweetie . michael : hey . where 's paul ? paul : oh , well , with the warehouse district news , he 's probably with dylan . but i hope he gets here soon . we have some news to share . michael : oh , well , so do we . paul : look , i am not asking you to completely give up and surrender . dylan : that 's what it sounded like . paul : i do n't want you to give up , son . i guess what i 'm suggesting is that you -- you let someone else man the charge for the rest of the war . avery : this is dylan 's place . why should n't he be the one to fight for it ? dylan : you know , ever since i found out that you were my father , what 's impressed me most about you is that you 're a man of principle . you stand up for what you believe in . how can you ask me to do less than that ? paul : [ chuckles ] i guess what i 'm afraid of -- [ sighs ] i 'm worried about nikki . dylan : because of victor . paul : this puts your mother in an incredibly difficult situation . dylan : that 's true . avery : the online headlines are already playing up the `` her husband versus her son `` angle . paul : well , i 'm sure the media is eager to write the next chapter in nikki 's troubles . dylan : paul , i see your point . and , of course , i 'm concerned about nikki , too , but i do n't see how me dialing back is the answer . that would mean letting victor win . jack : i was talking about adam because he 's been on my mind lately . little kate 's christening has reminded me of connor 's . that is all . billy : you 're not alone , jack . those thoughts seem to be going around . chelsea : that 's understandable , jack . why are you here ? victor : i came to bring you something . chelsea : uh , what is it ? victor : it 's a report on connor 's newman - chancellor stock . chelsea : oh . thank you . victor : and then , of course , i would like to see him , if i can . chelsea : he would love that , but he 's already sleeping . victor : oh . jack : eager to tell the little fella about your latest potential conquest ? billy : what -- what 's that ? jack : oh , victor 's been very busy decimating crimson lights and the rest of the warehouse district . chelsea : wait , you 're the one who sold the property to the redevelopment project ? victor : you never stop , jack , do you ? uh , do n't worry about it , my sweetheart . it 's not decided yet . um , it 's pending . chelsea : but that could destroy dylan 's business , amongst others . victor : well ... billy : oh , i 'm sure the great victor newman considered all of that , and then just dismissed it as collateral damage . victor : developing the downtown district would ensure my grandson 's legacy . and it would make genoa city much stronger . jack : i guess we 'll see about that , wo n't we ? i will come by and say hello to connor another day , okay ? when it 's less crowded around here . chelsea : well , you know you 're always welcome . victor : all right . thank you . nice to see you . chelsea : you too . bye . billy : [ scoffs ] maybe he 'll call first next time . jack : [ chuckles ] chelsea : i doubt it , but i 'm not ready to write off connor 's grandfather yet . billy : no , i 'm not asking you to . jack : so what 's up ? why did you want to see me ? billy : i wanted to ask you something . something important . sage : i 'm sorry we ca n't visit longer , nick , but we are in the middle of making funeral arrangements . nick : yeah , no . i totally get it . gabe , again , i 'm so sorry about your grandmother . adam : oh , thanks . you know , thank you . nick : hey , just remember . mut verloren , alles verloren . adam : auf wiedersehen . nick : what happened ? did i say something wrong ? victor : can we talk about something other than me ? nikki : ah , what i want does n't matter . victor : who says ? what 's the matter ? nikki : nothing . i 'm fine . leave me alone . victor : what do you mean , leave you alone ? just because we have an argument , i 'm not gon na stop helping you through an m.s . episode . nikki : it is not an m.s . episode . it 's you . m.s . is nothing compared to what you 've done . victor : i have n't done a damn thing ! what the hell is the matter with you ? lauren : hey ! paul : sorry i 'm late . christine : i was able to keep a lid on our news barely , but i think michael and lauren have some news of their own . paul : oh , really ? let 's hear it . michael : no , no . you tell yours first . paul : uh ... christine : we 're pregnant . [ chuckles ] lauren : wow ! michael : oh , my god ! congratulations ! lauren : we 're so happy for you ! christine : we are so happy , too . paul : now , chris is a lot more nervous than i am . i wanted to announce it to the world right after she took the pregnancy test . christine : now that i 'm further along , i 'm actually starting to believe it , that we 're actually going to have a baby . michael : well , we 're old hands at this . if you need any help . lauren : yeah , parenting tips , pregnancy tips . christine : trust me . we 're counting on it . paul : all right , now let 's hear it . what 's your news ? christine : yeah . billy : chelsea and i have been talking a lot about the importance of positive father figures . jack : why ? is there a problem ? chelsea : not at all . speed it up . you 're making him nervous . billy : [ chuckles ] okay . well , since you are the most positive father figure that i know , i was wondering if you 'd do me the honor of being katie 's godfather . jack : thank you , but ... victoria has some say in this . billy : vick is completely on board with my choice . chelsea : and i pointed out what an incredible godfather you 've been to connor , so ... jack : i take the position very seriously . chelsea : i 'm gon na check on the baby , let you boys chat . billy : well ? jack : yeah , of course . i would be thrilled to represent the abbott family . billy : thanks , jack . it means a lot , knowing that i can always count on you . jack : you can always count on me -- always . so , just keep me up to date on the christening , and i 'll be there . billy : okay . i will . and there 's something else i 've been meaning to ask you . jack : what 's that ? billy : the new guy at jabot , gabriel bingham ? what 's this guy 's deal ? i mean , what 's his new position gon na be ? nick : did i say something to upset him ? sage : well , i do n't know . what did you say ? nick : i was just trying to wish him well . you know , to have courage and be strong . it was a saying at our old school . this coach used to just hammer it into our heads . sage : right . nick : `` courage lost , all lost . `` i thought it would bring back some good memories for him . sage : gabriel 's not feeling very , uh ... happy right now . it 's an emotional time . nick : yeah . losing someone you love . it flattens you . sage : it really does . well , thank you so much for coming , nick . nick : yeah , just tell gabriel i 'll , uh ... you know , i 'll stay in touch . adam : well , that ca n't happen again . sage : all right . what do you suggest we do to nick to stop it ? paul : so ... what is it ? what 's your news ? michael : well , a few weeks ago , i , uh ... i made a -- lauren : fen made the dean 's list . christine : that 's fantastic . paul : that is fantastic ! not that i 'm at all surprised . lauren : you know , after everything that happened to him last year , we did n't even think that he 'd go to college , let alone do so well . michael : and you two helped make that happen . christine : please tell fen how happy we are for him . paul : you know what ? this gives me an idea . i think maybe we should hire him now to tutor our little one on the way . you know , before he gets too expensive . [ both chuckle ] christine : how about a toast to both of our blessings ? paul : absolutely . michael : to blessings . paul : congratulations . to you and to you . christine : [ chuckles ] i 'm so glad we finally got to tell them . jack : gabriel is gon na be a great asset to jabot . he has a marketing degree , extensive background traveling in europe . billy : okay , so , he 's familiar with the fashion and cosmetics industry ? jack : he will be a dynamic force in moving jabot 's products forward worldwide . why are you worried about him ? billy : he just hit me wrong . jack : how so ? billy : i do n't know . nothing specific . he just -- i did n't like how he just showed up here , though . jack : he showed up at your home ? why would he do that ? billy : said he was interested in renting something in the building . jack : coincidence . billy : maybe , but i do n't like the way he looks at chelsea . jack : why are you worried about that ? you two are doing just fine these days , right ? billy : yeah . it 's getting better every day . but your tone just now -- what ? did you think i was gon na blow it ? jack : this is a rebound relationship for both of you . those can be problematic . billy : are you really worried about me and chelsea ? jack : i am concerned . things are moving pretty fast . billy : [ sighs ] chelsea and i have known each other for years , jack . i mean , we 've been through childbirth and raising kids , death and loss . where is this coming from ? chelsea : i think i can answer that . it 's about adam , is n't it ? adam : that can not happen again . i need to be prepared , you know ? so i do n't get inadvertently tripped up in another one of nick 's rah - rah boarding school memories . sage : all right , well , just , you know , whatever he brings up , blow past it . he 'll let it go . adam : no . no , he wo n't let it go . you do n't know my brother . he 's got this white knight complex , you know ? the moment he senses any kind of distrust , he jumps on his steed and there he is , off to the rescue . he 's a real hypocrite . sage : so , in this scenario that you just pointed out , are you the dark knight and i 'm the damsel in distress ? adam : you are definitely not a damsel in dist -- sage : what ? what ? adam : he likes you . sage : you think so ? no , i do n't -- adam : you know , look , do n't flatter yourself . this is just the way his prehistoric caveman brain works . you know , `` pretty girl rescue me , i fall in love with pretty girl . `` he 's a simpleton . sage : yeah , he 's a nice guy , which is why the two of you do n't get along . what 's your plan ? adam : i 'm gon na use my best asset . you . you 're gon na keep an eye on him for me . sage : you want me to spy on him for you ? adam : well , it 's the wifely thing to do . avery : nick . nick : hey . avery : hi . did you hear the latest ? nick : what happened now ? avery : your father and the redevelopment project ? nick : oh , yeah . i heard about that . ca n't say i 'm surprised . avery : well , i should n't be shocked , either , but i ca n't believe he would betray nikki like this , and now dylan is on the warpath . nick ? nick : sorry . what ? avery : nick , what 's going on with you ? nikki : you know , i do feel physically ill right now , but not because of any disease . because of your lies and your behavior . you deliberately hurt my son . victor : sweetheart -- nikki : and that has just left me exhausted and physically ill . victor : you are tired right now , okay ? let 's discuss this when you feel better , all right ? nikki : what ? when you do it again ? because that 's what always happens , victor . i forgive you and you hurt me again ! victor : will you please stop it now ? ! dylan : what 's going on ? nikki : dylan , it 's -- dylan : what did you do ? victor : who are you , walking into my home ? dylan : i 'm nikki 's son . do you want to leave ? victor : are you serious ? you walk into my home uninvited and you 're asking her to leave ? the only one leaving is you ! dylan : you think you can shout commands and the entire world jumps ? you should have learned from your attempt to put me out of business that i will stand and fight for what i care about , and that includes my mother . victor : it was a business decision . nothing else . nikki : dylan , thank you so much for your concern . i do n't want to be the cause of any more trouble . dylan : you 're not the cause , nikki . i am . you going after my business -- is this really about money ? or is it really about your wife having a son with paul williams ? victor : you do not come into my home and speak to me like this , all right ? you calm down now . do n't spin what is a pure business decision into some sinister plot . dylan : you 're hiding behind your business . victor : i do n't hide behind anything or anyone . you got that ? dylan : i know how you work , victor . victor : if i have a problem , i come to you and face you . i discuss it man - to- man . not like you ! dylan : you think taking crimson lights is protecting my mother ? victor : that was a pure business decision ! nikki : stop it , stop it ! both of you ! [ sighs ] dylan : are you sure you 're all right here ? victor : she is all right here . leave . dylan : not until i know -- victor : i said leave ! dylan : not until i know she 's okay . victor : i said leave ! nikki : i 'll be okay . i can handle this . i 'll be fine . dylan : you call if you need anything . victor : get out now ! nikki : [ sighs ] victor : these young punks think they 're tough . nikki : dylan is not the cause for any of this . victor : wait a minute . obviously he stirred it up ! it 's not good for you ! nikki : he 's not to blame for this ! victor : let 's discuss this when you 've calmed down , okay ? nikki : fine . i 'm not sharing a bed with you . victor : you 're what ? nikki : you heard me . nick : i 've been feeling unsettled , i guess . kind of at loose ends . avery : okay , well , a custody battle would make any parent worry . nick : i 'm sure most of it is about faith , but i 'm trying to get a grip on my own life . avery : nick , you 're a wonderful parent . do n't ever doubt that . nick : i 'm questioning the years of my life with sharon , even the years before . avery : and what brought this on tonight ? nick : uh ... i ran into an old friend . chelsea : you feel some loyalty to adam , do n't you ? even after what he did . even though he 's gone . billy : more loyal than you feel to your own brother ? jack : you know that could never happen . it 's -- i just -- i do n't want to see either of you get hurt . billy : look , just stop worrying , jack . i mean , this -- this woman is sweet and funny and smart . and sometimes downright mean . chelsea : hey ! billy : look , the last thing i would ever want to do is hurt her . chelsea : jack , i was -- i was a wreck when i lost adam . i -- i mean , you remember for months i did n't believe it . i did n't think it was [ sighs ] even true for awhile . but since then i 've had to face some very hard facts . and i 've been able to move on now with someone that i can lean on and can laugh with and can build a life with . and someone that i love . trust me . when this started , we were thinking what you 're thinking , that it was n't gon na go anywhere , but it has somewhere , and now ... you know , i really ca n't imagine my life without billy in it . billy : look , jack , we believe we can make this work . is it that tough for you to believe it , too ? both : hey . avery : how was nikki ? dylan : she looks sick . and shaky . and i hate the fact that she 's married to that egomaniac . paul : dylan , what 's going on ? dylan : hey , i just wanted you to know that i went to check on nikki and she 's doing okay , not great . paul : thanks for the update . and , listen , i promise i will keep a close eye on nikki . victor : what do you mean you 're not coming to bed with me . nikki : i 'm staying in the guest room . victor : all right . have it your way . nikki : victor , this was not an everyday corporate decision . you intentionally hurt my son . it was an attack on him . victor : just because you and your son see it that way does n't make it so . nikki : do you not remember how hard i tried to accept adam ? i think the least you could do is accept somebody as upstanding as dylan . victor : none of what you 're saying makes any sense to me , okay ? we 'll discuss it all when you 're more reasonable . nikki : [ sighs ] [ sighs ] jack : i can promise you i have never had any problem with you and chelsea being together . i simply want what is best for both of you . chelsea : well , come by anytime you like , jack . and thank you . jack : thank you . see you at the office . billy : mm - hmm . you know ... i can tell that you 're still not 100 % behind this relationship . i 'm trying to protect you , billy . billy : jack , what is the risk ? my life is n't gon na do the 180 that yours is . it 's not like adam 's gon na rise up out of a hospital bed like phyllis did . chelsea 's taken her wedding rings off , and i 'm getting my tattooed one removed . connor is even calling me daddy . jack : do n't get too attached . billy : geez , jack . again , this is not your life . i 've already been through the worst , with delia and with vick , and i learned from that , and nothing is going to rip chelsea and connor away from me . jack : you ca n't anticipate the future . i got to go . [ door closes ] sage : thought you wanted me to keep my distance from nick . adam : well , plans change , and since i have to be in genoa city to win chelsea back , it 's obvious that i 'm gon na be running into my brother , so i need to know more about these boarding school memories that are gon na keep popping up . sage : so , research online . review the alumni site and -- adam : that 's not gon na have any of the personal details these two shared . i need to know what 's going on inside that guy 's thick skull . sage : okay . it protects my interest as well . adam : good . very good . dig deep . all right ? you need to pound him for all the information you can . you need to make sure nick keeps thinking that i 'm his old pal gabe . nick : gabriel was expelled ? how can he not remember that ? [ next_on ] [ glass shatters ] neil : whoa ! hey . what was that ? ashley : victoria is just so devoted to you now that she 's not gon na do her father 's bidding ? really ? | lauren and michael plan to tell paul and christine that michael has cancer but change their minds when they are told that christine is pregnant . victor and nikki argue . dylan stops by to check on nikki and victor throws him out . nikki tells victor she wo n't sleep in the same bed with him and victor agrees . once he has gone upstairs , nikki drinks . gabriel instructs sage to get close to nick and find out everything she can about his and gabe 's time at boarding school . nick finds an article online about gabe being expelled after the boating accident and wonders how gabe could forget something like that . | <s>[INST] jack : this building needs better security . victor : i would say it does . if people like you are allowed to lurk in the hallways . jack : have n't you done enough damage to this town today ? why do you have to cast your shadow on billy and chelsea 's doorstep ? victor : i 'm here to see my grandson , jack . oh , come to think of it . maybe he is n't my grandson anymore . maybe you had time to manipulate the birth records or tamper with the dna results . jack : okay , you and i both know that is n't fair . sharon is responsible for what happened with summer . victor : you bet , and you were only too happy to go along with the lies , were n't you , jack ? in fact , you wanted summer so badly to be an abbott , you did n't even conduct your own dna test , did you ? got news for you . she 's a newman . she ai n't an abbott . jack : i will love and respect summer regardless what her last name is , which means i would never even think of stooping to deceive her into signing important documents about her mother 's health . victor : of course you would n't . righteous jack . that 's right . if it were up to you , your fiancée would still be languishing in a coma in that hospital room , whilst you 're cavorting with what ? what 's her name ? jack : okay , that 's enough . victor : why are you here , by the way , jack ? got another woman stashed away here somewhere ? huh ? while your fiancée was unconscious ? is that when you met her ? jack : i am here to see billy . i was invited . were you ? avery : oh ! where did all those people come from ? dylan : who cares ? i 'm just glad they showed up . avery : dylan , we could really win this . for the first time , it feels like we can win . dylan : this whole time , it 's felt like just you and me and a few friends giving a damn about crimson lights , but seeing those people out there , holding their signs up and cheering . avery : i know ! it matters to them and that 's what 's gon na help us fight this . [ sighs ] paul : well ... exciting night , huh ? dylan : pretty unbelievable . now we know who the true enemy is -- victor . avery : being able to put a face and a name to the person tearing down this neighborhood gives us some much - needed momentum . dylan : all right , so what 's our next move ? getting people to boycott newman- chancellor . avery : i am gon na launch a media assault . paul : or you could just walk away . avery : walk away ? paul ! dylan : you want me to give up ? why ? paul : yeah , nikki , it 's me . listen , uh ... i just wanted to make sure you 're okay . i know this whole thing with victor came as a shock . and i wanted to let you know that if you want to talk or you feel like having a drink , i just hope you call me first . nikki : do n't worry , paul . i have everything under control . lauren : you 're early . michael : . oh . you too . miss me ? lauren : mm . bunches . how bad 's the pain ? michael : mm . it 's not terrible . it 's just there . lauren : here ? michael : yeah . thanks . [ chuckles ] lauren : so , um , you know , we need to discuss how we 're gon na do this tonight . michael : dinner ? mm ... fork to mouth ? unless they 've come up with some other technique . lauren : how we 're gon na tell our friends . michael : i do n't want to talk about that tonight . lauren : honey . we need to . michael : no , i 'm not going to have a `` welcome to michael 's cancer `` dinner . billy : how do you feel about connor calling me `` daddy `` ? chelsea : i 'm ... relieved . i mean , since connor started talking , he 's called stuffed animals , my mom , even me `` daddy , `` so at least he 's getting the gender right . billy : [ chuckles ] why do you always do that ? every time this happens , you make a joke out of it . chelsea : oh , i 'm sorry . billy abbott is telling me i 'm joking too much ? billy : [ chuckles ] okay , fair enough . but it is kind of serious . how do you want to handle this ? chelsea : i do n't know . i guess i 've just been avoiding making a decision about it . billy : look , chelsea , if you want him to call me `` billy , `` it 's fine . just say so , and the next time that `` daddy `` comes out of his mouth , we 'll correct him . it 's -- it 's not that big a deal , you know ? chelsea : billy . everything is a big deal when it comes to telling connor who his father was . billy : you do n't have to explain to me . chelsea : no , i do need to explain , because i can see that it 's hurting you , but ... connor , he 's getting older . old enough to understand . so i ca n't just shrug my shoulders and let him assume . billy : you know what ? forget i brought it up . chelsea : just please understand . for my son 's sake and my son 's heart , i have to keep adam alive . adam : yeah , juliet , she was a hell of a girl . [ chuckles ] nick : what ? juliet was a sailboat . i ca n't believe you do n't remember that . the gabriel bingham i knew would never forget that . adam : yeah , no , i mean , you know , maybe to you she was just a sailboat , but , uh ... you know , to me she was -- she was my first love . nick : [ laughs ] adam : she was ! no , i 'm serious . hey , listen . i 'm stuck in the swiss alps , i 'm at an all - boys ' school . it 's easy to think of a sailboat as the sexiest thing in the world , right ? nick : boy , i hear you . i mean , from time to time , i can think about the shape of that hull . adam : oh , yeah . although i 'm more of a stern man , myself . always have been . always have been . nick : [ laughs ] sage : so nice to know you have such good memories from school . adam : yeah . nick : well , the only problem with that is that juliet was n't exactly a good memory , right bingo ? adam : no , it was not . sorry to say . sage : what happened to her ? nick : she sank to the bottom of the lake . nick : juliet sank . nick : actually , what gabe should be saying is that he crashed her and she sank . sage : gabe crashed a boat ? nick : oh , yeah . sage : that 's so typical . adam : yeah , i mean ... nick , come on . you were n't exactly an angel . sage : oh , really ? ooh , do tell . nick : first , you got to tell me . i mean , what happened after you sank the juliet ? sage : were n't you there ? nick : i transferred back to school here in the u.s. , so i never heard about the fallout . so , you got to tell me , man . how bad was it ? adam : [ chuckles ] sage : [ chuckles ] adam : uh ... victor : and , by the way , i do n't need an invitation to visit my own flesh and blood . jack : a warning might be nice . do they even know you 're coming ? victor : this is ridiculous . it 's none of your business . jack : no , it 's my business , all right . connor is my godson . victor : an irrelevant title with no substance , jack . jack : it certainly seemed important to adam . he wanted me to protect his son . victor : protect him from what ? from me ? jack : it was , i believe , adam 's wish that you not interfere in connor 's life . victor : and who are you to interpret adam 's final wishes ? jack : i was closer to adam than most anyone in this town , and he certainly shared a lot more with me than he did his own father . victor : well , that is indicative of how distorted adam 's mind was at the end of his life . jack : adam made mistakes . plenty of them . but he is who he is only because of you . victor : why are you speaking of adam in the present tense ? adam : crashing that beautiful sailboat was not my finest hour . i 've sort of blocked it out , if you can imagine . sage : speaking of great stories , you said that you were gabriel 's big brother in school ? nick : yeah , i was a couple years older , but as you should be able to tell by now , he was a lot better at corrupting me than i was at keeping him in line . adam : oh , come on . sage : what kinds of things did you do ? nick : just typical boy stuff . i mean , we 're at a boarding school in switzerland . there 's not exactly a big nightlife . adam : well , did n't stop us from sneaking out from time to time , though . sage : like , doing what ? adam : oh , uh , we would , uh , ski . a lot of skiing . skateboarding . nick : come on ! that 's the little stuff . i want to know how did this mess with the juliet pan out ? sage : was it really that big of a huge deal ? nick : it was only the biggest thing that ever happened in our school , considering that juliet was the headmaster 's boat . sage : no ! nick : yeah . his pride and joy . so i 'm sure you can imagine it was wow . how 'd you get out of it ? adam : how 'd i get -- yeah , you know , i -- gosh , i really do n't want to talk about that tonight . uh ... it 's -- i mean , it 's probably obvious . my grandmother ended up bailing me out of that , so ... nick : oh , yeah . you were lucky to have her , gabe . adam : yeah , i was . she , uh , she saved me , you know ? more than once . so ... hard to believe she 's gone . sage : she was a wonderful woman . we 're really gon na miss her . nick : i understand . again , if there 's anything i can do . [ laughs ] but if you ever get a chance , you got to tell sage the juliet story . sage : probably would n't be able to remember all those details anyway . adam : probably not . sage : [ laughs ] adam : probably not . sage : why do n't you tell us ? adam : well , hell . now , there 's an idea . why do n't you tell the story ? i could use a laugh about right now , anyway . nick : okay . [ laughing ] so , it started out as a good deed . one of our friends was responsible for securing the boat , but he did not moor her properly . sage : so it drifted . nick : oh , yeah . it drifted . so , gabe and this other dude jump into the lake , swim out there , and try and retrieve her . adam : i just blindly jumped into the lake , you know ? 'cause that 's the kind of guy i am . sage : yeah . you are . [ chuckles ] so how did it crash or ... nick : problem was , once gabe got on the boat , he just had to find out what she could do , so he got it up to full speed , hit some debris in the water , and then shewm ! pow ! adam : killed juliet . nick : you killed her . sage : [ sighs ] nick : there 's a lot of stories like that . adam : i 'm afraid that 's probably true . billy : chelsea , it 's okay . you want to keep adam 's memory front and center for your son . chelsea : it 's important to me , billy . billy : i understand . chelsea : no , you do n't , because i do n't think i really understood until now . i want my son to be proud of the good things that his father did . i want connor to know how much his dad adored him . billy : then we will make sure of that . chelsea : but i also want my son to have a father who 's a man of honor and strength and compassion . so , i do n't think that connor could have chosen a better person to call daddy tonight . billy : [ chuckles ] you make me sound like some kind of role model . chelsea : well , you are , to connor . billy : chels , i should n't be . i mean ... i 've made so many mistakes . chelsea : well , so have i . we 'll just teach him to do better than we did . billy : then you can count on me . jack : it 's the truth ! you ca n't deny it ! chelsea : [ sighs ] victor : do not presume to dictate to me about my children , my grandchildren . chelsea : what is going on out here ? victor : jack is being ... rather impolite , rather rude about adam 's death . jack : hardly . victor : hardly ? you spoke about him in the present tense . as if he were here . jack : i misspoke . victor : well , that 's utterly inappropriate ! michael : i thought you understood how i feel about this . lauren : honey , i understand not telling gloria . but christine ? no . michael : it 's private , lauren . lauren : it is cancer , and you are already feeling pain and having symptoms . do you think you could keep that from the chief of police and the da ? michael : if paul and christine randomly ask me if i have cancer , then i will tell them the truth . lauren : why are you waiting ? michael : why rush this ? lauren : because they love you , and they 're our friends . michael : i want to wait . lauren : [ scoffs ] how do you think they 're gon na feel when they find out what you have gone through and we did n't say anything ? what if the tables were turned ? michael : [ sighs ] you know what i hate about this ? i hate that if i tell paul and christine , then this dinner just ca n't be dinner . that if i talk about sports or movies , people will just be thinking about my cancer . lauren : we need to be around people that we do n't have to put an act on for . they were with us during the hardest time of our life . michael : i know that . lauren : we need their support . and they need to know that we turned to them when we needed help . michael : `` we `` ? lauren : yes . michael : [ sighs ] sorry . sorry . i forget that i 'm not the only one facing this . lauren : oh , honey , believe me . i would love , love to block this out and pretend it was n't happening . [ sighs ] you start radiation soon . michael : all right , okay . i will share this with them , for your sake . [ sighs ] it will not be easy saying the words . lauren : well , just , you know , say it fast . then we 'll just talk about david fincher films . maybe no one will notice . michael : you really do love me , do n't you ? lauren : do n't you ever forget it . michael : [ chuckles ] hey ! lauren : hi . christine : you two seem happy . hi . lauren : hi , sweetie . michael : hey . where 's paul ? paul : oh , well , with the warehouse district news , he 's probably with dylan . but i hope he gets here soon . we have some news to share . michael : oh , well , so do we . paul : look , i am not asking you to completely give up and surrender . dylan : that 's what it sounded like . paul : i do n't want you to give up , son . i guess what i 'm suggesting is that you -- you let someone else man the charge for the rest of the war . avery : this is dylan 's place . why should n't he be the one to fight for it ? dylan : you know , ever since i found out that you were my father , what 's impressed me most about you is that you 're a man of principle . you stand up for what you believe in . how can you ask me to do less than that ? paul : [ chuckles ] i guess what i 'm afraid of -- [ sighs ] i 'm worried about nikki . dylan : because of victor . paul : this puts your mother in an incredibly difficult situation . dylan : that 's true . avery : the online headlines are already playing up the `` her husband versus her son `` angle . paul : well , i 'm sure the media is eager to write the next chapter in nikki 's troubles . dylan : paul , i see your point . and , of course , i 'm concerned about nikki , too , but i do n't see how me dialing back is the answer . that would mean letting victor win . jack : i was talking about adam because he 's been on my mind lately . little kate 's christening has reminded me of connor 's . that is all . billy : you 're not alone , jack . those thoughts seem to be going around . chelsea : that 's understandable , jack . why are you here ? victor : i came to bring you something . chelsea : uh , what is it ? victor : it 's a report on connor 's newman - chancellor stock . chelsea : oh . thank you . victor : and then , of course , i would like to see him , if i can . chelsea : he would love that , but he 's already sleeping . victor : oh . jack : eager to tell the little fella about your latest potential conquest ? billy : what -- what 's that ? jack : oh , victor 's been very busy decimating crimson lights and the rest of the warehouse district . chelsea : wait , you 're the one who sold the property to the redevelopment project ? victor : you never stop , jack , do you ? uh , do n't worry about it , my sweetheart . it 's not decided yet . um , it 's pending . chelsea : but that could destroy dylan 's business , amongst others . victor : well ... billy : oh , i 'm sure the great victor newman considered all of that , and then just dismissed it as collateral damage . victor : developing the downtown district would ensure my grandson 's legacy . and it would make genoa city much stronger . jack : i guess we 'll see about that , wo n't we ? i will come by and say hello to connor another day , okay ? when it 's less crowded around here . chelsea : well , you know you 're always welcome . victor : all right . thank you . nice to see you . chelsea : you too . bye . billy : [ scoffs ] maybe he 'll call first next time . jack : [ chuckles ] chelsea : i doubt it , but i 'm not ready to write off connor 's grandfather yet . billy : no , i 'm not asking you to . jack : so what 's up ? why did you want to see me ? billy : i wanted to ask you something . something important . sage : i 'm sorry we ca n't visit longer , nick , but we are in the middle of making funeral arrangements . nick : yeah , no . i totally get it . gabe , again , i 'm so sorry about your grandmother . adam : oh , thanks . you know , thank you . nick : hey , just remember . mut verloren , alles verloren . adam : auf wiedersehen . nick : what happened ? did i say something wrong ? victor : can we talk about something other than me ? nikki : ah , what i want does n't matter . victor : who says ? what 's the matter ? nikki : nothing . i 'm fine . leave me alone . victor : what do you mean , leave you alone ? just because we have an argument , i 'm not gon na stop helping you through an m.s . episode . nikki : it is not an m.s . episode . it 's you . m.s . is nothing compared to what you 've done . victor : i have n't done a damn thing ! what the hell is the matter with you ? lauren : hey ! paul : sorry i 'm late . christine : i was able to keep a lid on our news barely , but i think michael and lauren have some news of their own . paul : oh , really ? let 's hear it . michael : no , no . you tell yours first . paul : uh ... christine : we 're pregnant . [ chuckles ] lauren : wow ! michael : oh , my god ! congratulations ! lauren : we 're so happy for you ! christine : we are so happy , too . paul : now , chris is a lot more nervous than i am . i wanted to announce it to the world right after she took the pregnancy test . christine : now that i 'm further along , i 'm actually starting to believe it , that we 're actually going to have a baby . michael : well , we 're old hands at this . if you need any help . lauren : yeah , parenting tips , pregnancy tips . christine : trust me . we 're counting on it . paul : all right , now let 's hear it . what 's your news ? christine : yeah . billy : chelsea and i have been talking a lot about the importance of positive father figures . jack : why ? is there a problem ? chelsea : not at all . speed it up . you 're making him nervous . billy : [ chuckles ] okay . well , since you are the most positive father figure that i know , i was wondering if you 'd do me the honor of being katie 's godfather . jack : thank you , but ... victoria has some say in this . billy : vick is completely on board with my choice . chelsea : and i pointed out what an incredible godfather you 've been to connor , so ... jack : i take the position very seriously . chelsea : i 'm gon na check on the baby , let you boys chat . billy : well ? jack : yeah , of course . i would be thrilled to represent the abbott family . billy : thanks , jack . it means a lot , knowing that i can always count on you . jack : you can always count on me -- always . so , just keep me up to date on the christening , and i 'll be there . billy : okay . i will . and there 's something else i 've been meaning to ask you . jack : what 's that ? billy : the new guy at jabot , gabriel bingham ? what 's this guy 's deal ? i mean , what 's his new position gon na be ? nick : did i say something to upset him ? sage : well , i do n't know . what did you say ? nick : i was just trying to wish him well . you know , to have courage and be strong . it was a saying at our old school . this coach used to just hammer it into our heads . sage : right . nick : `` courage lost , all lost . `` i thought it would bring back some good memories for him . sage : gabriel 's not feeling very , uh ... happy right now . it 's an emotional time . nick : yeah . losing someone you love . it flattens you . sage : it really does . well , thank you so much for coming , nick . nick : yeah , just tell gabriel i 'll , uh ... you know , i 'll stay in touch . adam : well , that ca n't happen again . sage : all right . what do you suggest we do to nick to stop it ? paul : so ... what is it ? what 's your news ? michael : well , a few weeks ago , i , uh ... i made a -- lauren : fen made the dean 's list . christine : that 's fantastic . paul : that is fantastic ! not that i 'm at all surprised . lauren : you know , after everything that happened to him last year , we did n't even think that he 'd go to college , let alone do so well . michael : and you two helped make that happen . christine : please tell fen how happy we are for him . paul : you know what ? this gives me an idea . i think maybe we should hire him now to tutor our little one on the way . you know , before he gets too expensive . [ both chuckle ] christine : how about a toast to both of our blessings ? paul : absolutely . michael : to blessings . paul : congratulations . to you and to you . christine : [ chuckles ] i 'm so glad we finally got to tell them . jack : gabriel is gon na be a great asset to jabot . he has a marketing degree , extensive background traveling in europe . billy : okay , so , he 's familiar with the fashion and cosmetics industry ? jack : he will be a dynamic force in moving jabot 's products forward worldwide . why are you worried about him ? billy : he just hit me wrong . jack : how so ? billy : i do n't know . nothing specific . he just -- i did n't like how he just showed up here , though . jack : he showed up at your home ? why would he do that ? billy : said he was interested in renting something in the building . jack : coincidence . billy : maybe , but i do n't like the way he looks at chelsea . jack : why are you worried about that ? you two are doing just fine these days , right ? billy : yeah . it 's getting better every day . but your tone just now -- what ? did you think i was gon na blow it ? jack : this is a rebound relationship for both of you . those can be problematic . billy : are you really worried about me and chelsea ? jack : i am concerned . things are moving pretty fast . billy : [ sighs ] chelsea and i have known each other for years , jack . i mean , we 've been through childbirth and raising kids , death and loss . where is this coming from ? chelsea : i think i can answer that . it 's about adam , is n't it ? adam : that can not happen again . i need to be prepared , you know ? so i do n't get inadvertently tripped up in another one of nick 's rah - rah boarding school memories . sage : all right , well , just , you know , whatever he brings up , blow past it . he 'll let it go . adam : no . no , he wo n't let it go . you do n't know my brother . he 's got this white knight complex , you know ? the moment he senses any kind of distrust , he jumps on his steed and there he is , off to the rescue . he 's a real hypocrite . sage : so , in this scenario that you just pointed out , are you the dark knight and i 'm the damsel in distress ? adam : you are definitely not a damsel in dist -- sage : what ? what ? adam : he likes you . sage : you think so ? no , i do n't -- adam : you know , look , do n't flatter yourself . this is just the way his prehistoric caveman brain works . you know , `` pretty girl rescue me , i fall in love with pretty girl . `` he 's a simpleton . sage : yeah , he 's a nice guy , which is why the two of you do n't get along . what 's your plan ? adam : i 'm gon na use my best asset . you . you 're gon na keep an eye on him for me . sage : you want me to spy on him for you ? adam : well , it 's the wifely thing to do . avery : nick . nick : hey . avery : hi . did you hear the latest ? nick : what happened now ? avery : your father and the redevelopment project ? nick : oh , yeah . i heard about that . ca n't say i 'm surprised . avery : well , i should n't be shocked , either , but i ca n't believe he would betray nikki like this , and now dylan is on the warpath . nick ? nick : sorry . what ? avery : nick , what 's going on with you ? nikki : you know , i do feel physically ill right now , but not because of any disease . because of your lies and your behavior . you deliberately hurt my son . victor : sweetheart -- nikki : and that has just left me exhausted and physically ill . victor : you are tired right now , okay ? let 's discuss this when you feel better , all right ? nikki : what ? when you do it again ? because that 's what always happens , victor . i forgive you and you hurt me again ! victor : will you please stop it now ? ! dylan : what 's going on ? nikki : dylan , it 's -- dylan : what did you do ? victor : who are you , walking into my home ? dylan : i 'm nikki 's son . do you want to leave ? victor : are you serious ? you walk into my home uninvited and you 're asking her to leave ? the only one leaving is you ! dylan : you think you can shout commands and the entire world jumps ? you should have learned from your attempt to put me out of business that i will stand and fight for what i care about , and that includes my mother . victor : it was a business decision . nothing else . nikki : dylan , thank you so much for your concern . i do n't want to be the cause of any more trouble . dylan : you 're not the cause , nikki . i am . you going after my business -- is this really about money ? or is it really about your wife having a son with paul williams ? victor : you do not come into my home and speak to me like this , all right ? you calm down now . do n't spin what is a pure business decision into some sinister plot . dylan : you 're hiding behind your business . victor : i do n't hide behind anything or anyone . you got that ? dylan : i know how you work , victor . victor : if i have a problem , i come to you and face you . i discuss it man - to- man . not like you ! dylan : you think taking crimson lights is protecting my mother ? victor : that was a pure business decision ! nikki : stop it , stop it ! both of you ! [ sighs ] dylan : are you sure you 're all right here ? victor : she is all right here . leave . dylan : not until i know -- victor : i said leave ! dylan : not until i know she 's okay . victor : i said leave ! nikki : i 'll be okay . i can handle this . i 'll be fine . dylan : you call if you need anything . victor : get out now ! nikki : [ sighs ] victor : these young punks think they 're tough . nikki : dylan is not the cause for any of this . victor : wait a minute . obviously he stirred it up ! it 's not good for you ! nikki : he 's not to blame for this ! victor : let 's discuss this when you 've calmed down , okay ? nikki : fine . i 'm not sharing a bed with you . victor : you 're what ? nikki : you heard me . nick : i 've been feeling unsettled , i guess . kind of at loose ends . avery : okay , well , a custody battle would make any parent worry . nick : i 'm sure most of it is about faith , but i 'm trying to get a grip on my own life . avery : nick , you 're a wonderful parent . do n't ever doubt that . nick : i 'm questioning the years of my life with sharon , even the years before . avery : and what brought this on tonight ? nick : uh ... i ran into an old friend . chelsea : you feel some loyalty to adam , do n't you ? even after what he did . even though he 's gone . billy : more loyal than you feel to your own brother ? jack : you know that could never happen . it 's -- i just -- i do n't want to see either of you get hurt . billy : look , just stop worrying , jack . i mean , this -- this woman is sweet and funny and smart . and sometimes downright mean . chelsea : hey ! billy : look , the last thing i would ever want to do is hurt her . chelsea : jack , i was -- i was a wreck when i lost adam . i -- i mean , you remember for months i did n't believe it . i did n't think it was [ sighs ] even true for awhile . but since then i 've had to face some very hard facts . and i 've been able to move on now with someone that i can lean on and can laugh with and can build a life with . and someone that i love . trust me . when this started , we were thinking what you 're thinking , that it was n't gon na go anywhere , but it has somewhere , and now ... you know , i really ca n't imagine my life without billy in it . billy : look , jack , we believe we can make this work . is it that tough for you to believe it , too ? both : hey . avery : how was nikki ? dylan : she looks sick . and shaky . and i hate the fact that she 's married to that egomaniac . paul : dylan , what 's going on ? dylan : hey , i just wanted you to know that i went to check on nikki and she 's doing okay , not great . paul : thanks for the update . and , listen , i promise i will keep a close eye on nikki . victor : what do you mean you 're not coming to bed with me . nikki : i 'm staying in the guest room . victor : all right . have it your way . nikki : victor , this was not an everyday corporate decision . you intentionally hurt my son . it was an attack on him . victor : just because you and your son see it that way does n't make it so . nikki : do you not remember how hard i tried to accept adam ? i think the least you could do is accept somebody as upstanding as dylan . victor : none of what you 're saying makes any sense to me , okay ? we 'll discuss it all when you 're more reasonable . nikki : [ sighs ] [ sighs ] jack : i can promise you i have never had any problem with you and chelsea being together . i simply want what is best for both of you . chelsea : well , come by anytime you like , jack . and thank you . jack : thank you . see you at the office . billy : mm - hmm . you know ... i can tell that you 're still not 100 % behind this relationship . i 'm trying to protect you , billy . billy : jack , what is the risk ? my life is n't gon na do the 180 that yours is . it 's not like adam 's gon na rise up out of a hospital bed like phyllis did . chelsea 's taken her wedding rings off , and i 'm getting my tattooed one removed . connor is even calling me daddy . jack : do n't get too attached . billy : geez , jack . again , this is not your life . i 've already been through the worst , with delia and with vick , and i learned from that , and nothing is going to rip chelsea and connor away from me . jack : you ca n't anticipate the future . i got to go . [ door closes ] sage : thought you wanted me to keep my distance from nick . adam : well , plans change , and since i have to be in genoa city to win chelsea back , it 's obvious that i 'm gon na be running into my brother , so i need to know more about these boarding school memories that are gon na keep popping up . sage : so , research online . review the alumni site and -- adam : that 's not gon na have any of the personal details these two shared . i need to know what 's going on inside that guy 's thick skull . sage : okay . it protects my interest as well . adam : good . very good . dig deep . all right ? you need to pound him for all the information you can . you need to make sure nick keeps thinking that i 'm his old pal gabe . nick : gabriel was expelled ? how can he not remember that ?

[ sighs ] but when that son of a bitch finds out that we are living here together , drinking his brandy together , and plotting his demise together , he 's gon na go out of his mind , and i think that is worth it , do n't you think ? sami : i suppose . kate : you know another thing i 'm gon na do , as soon as i have a moment , i think i am going to get a decorator into this man cave . maybe some flourishes , some chintz . but that abomination is gon na be the first thing that goes . sami : well , now we 've found one thing we can agree on . [ chuckles ] kate : actually , i think we can find more common ground than that . i have file folders here for each division of the company , and i 've divided them into two groups , group `` a , `` group `` b. `` group `` a , `` these are the ones that we are going to kill ourselves to make profitable . sami : and group `` b `` ? kate : well , group `` b `` is where stefano and ej have invested the bulk of their personal assets . those are the ones -- sami : that are gon na crash and burn . kate : oh , by george , you 've got it . you feeling better now ? sami : you know what ? i think i do . kate : [ chuckles ] jordan : i have n't heard from ollie . i do n't have a clue where he 's at . clyde : and here i thought you were smarter than to lie to me right off the bat . jordan : i 'm not lying . clyde : do you think i just rolled into town last night ? i 've been here for a couple of days getting all my ducks in a row . i been watching you . i been watching him too , ben , as he calls himself now . so how about the three of us get together for a little family reunion ? right now . jordan : i 'm not letting you anywhere near my brother . abigail : i may have made a lot of mistakes , but i swear to you , i 'm not using you to forget about ej . i was over ej before you and i ever even met , and what he and i had , it was -- it was n't about love , it was -- it was nothing even close to that . ben : what was it about then ? abigail : uh -- i ca n't say . ben : are you sure you were never in love with him ? maybe you still are . ej : look , william , the relationship that i have with your mother is -- it 's very complex . will : how about you and abigail ? was that complex too ? or did you just see that she was vulnerable , and decided to go in for the kill ? ej : [ laughs ] i did n't take advantage of abigail . look , you 're gon na think of me whatever you 're gon na think of me , and i understand that i ca n't do anything about that , i get it , but when it comes to abigail and your mother -- will : look , i realize that they need to take some responsibility for this mess . mostly , i just think that they -- they did n't want to see you for the man that you really are . maybe i did n't either . i so wanted to believe that you 'd changed . so did mom . but you have n't . you 're a dimera . you will always put what you want before anything else . ej : i 'm gon na get her back , william . will : which one ? my mom or abigail ? sami : [ scoffs ] [ doorbell ringing ] sami : yeah , but if all of these companies in group `` b `` start hemorrhaging money , do n't you think that the board will lose faith in us ? kate : well , not if group `` a `` is doing gangbusters . the board does n't care about where it comes from , they just want to see profits in the end . [ knocking at the door ] sami : yes ? kate : come in . sami : what is it , harold ? harold : detective hernandez is here . kate : oh , great , show him in . rafe : oh . hi , ladies . kate : detective hernandez . it 's happy hour at the manse . could i offer you a martini ? sami : [ laughs ] rafe : [ laughs ] no , no thanks . but what i would like to know is , what the hell 's going on ? jordan : i 'm not calling ben . i 'm not setting him up for you . i do n't care what you do to me . clyde : you 're smart enough to know i have people watching my boy , right now . do you want to know if he 's okay ? abigail : ben , you have to understand that when things with ej and i started , i -- [ phone ringing ] ben : i have to go . abigail : wait , but ben , i -- ej : you know full well i 'm talking about your mother . we have two kids , we 're a family , and we 've worked through a lot tougher things than this in the past . once i get out of this mess , i 'm gon na go convince her that she is the only woman that i love and the only woman that i want to be with ! will : save it for someone who cares . i 'm sorry that i ever trusted you . i 'm not gon na make that mistake again . rafe : so ... this is a subpoena . the state 's attorney 's office has requested certain financial documents from dimera enterprises . kate : can i see it ? rafe : mm - hmm . kate : oh , well , these are the divisions that we were just talking about , sami . hmm . absolutely , we would be more than happy to comply with the subpoena tomorrow morning . rafe : great . not even gon na consult with ej or stefano , huh ? kate : well , you see , we 're rather tired of answering to men . sami : [ laughs ] yes , and we have decided to run dimera enterprises our way . rafe : oh , cool . although that 's got ta be kind of awkward , considering you just married ej . sami : do n't remind me .

'cause i 'm kind of getting the feeling -- kate : well , there was a sami and ej , but then sami found out that ej cheated on her . jordan : you know , you might as well give up . he 's not gon na show . he got that message , and he took off in the other direction . clyde : nice try , but he knows you 're alone with me right now , and if he 's half the man i raised him to be , he 'll show . and that 's a good thing , 'cause after all these years , three of us have a lot to talk about . and i must say , time has been good to you . you 're even prettier than the day you left . ben : get away from her . clyde : [ chuckles ] hello there , ollie . or would you rather me call you by your new name ? ben : i do n't want you to call me anything . has this bastard told you what he wants yet ? clyde : i 'm getting a little disappointed with the way you two are treating this reunion . a stranger might hear you and think i was the one who done you wrong , instead of the other way around . ben : you can tell yourself that garbage , but do n't tell it to us . we know the truth . do you really think tracking us down means anything 's changed ? clyde : it means i have my family back , and i 'm not letting 'em out of my sight again . ben : we 're not kids anymore , and you 're getting to be an old man . i do n't know what you think you can do to us now . clyde : well , then , let me lay it out for you . first , i can get the law on you . you two stole a whole bunch of money from me , and tammy , you abducted a minor and took him across state line . that 's a federal offense . now , you both know i was real unhappy when you took off . you do n't even want to think about making me that unhappy again . [ footsteps approaching ] abigail : we both knew the truth was going to come out . did n't we ? adrienne : okay , honey , are you gon na be able to sleep tonight ? okay , honey . i 'll see you tomorrow . i love you . how 's the baby ? sonny : sleeping like an angel . adrienne : she 's the only one . lucas : what did jenn say ? adrienne : that she found out about ej and abigail because sami showed up and acted like a total bitch . sonny : mom , sami was really hurt . she thought of abigail as a friend . adrienne : yeah , but she had to know that this was all ej 's doing . sonny : it does n't sound like it 's all ej . adrienne : oh , come on , i talked to abigail . she was defending him . he talked about reading her father 's book , and how impressed he was . he snowed her . and i should have realized what was going on from the get - go , but for sami to go over to jenn 's house and -- [ door opening ] will : [ clears throat ] what 's going on ? adrienne : i 'm sorry , will . i really tried with your mother . in fact , i felt so bad for her when ej was arrested , but now -- lucas : adrienne , please , calm down . will : no , let her talk . what did my mom do now ? rafe : ej cheated on sami . is that a fact ? kate : oh , yeah . rafe : with who ? anyone i know ? kate : abigail deveraux . rafe : [ chuckles ] wow . kate : i know . i guess she was n't as innocent as we all thought . it 's kind of ironic , is n't it ? rafe : how 's that ? kate : well , sami cheated on you with ej . rafe : i know , that was the end of things . kate : [ sighs ] and then ej cheats on her , destroying everything that she thought they were . rafe : well , sami made the mistake of thinking that ej could change . kate : at least you and jordan are happy . rafe : yeah . means a lot to me . kate : i want you to know that jordan is never going to find out that the two of us were together the other day . rafe : yeah . i thought we both agreed that was a mistake . kate : i know . i know , and i know if jordan found out that we slept together again , it would certainly destroy her . adrienne : your mom did n't just tell jennifer about ej and abigail . she had pictures and she showed them . will : you 're sure ? adrienne : jennifer told me herself . now , look , i know your mom is hurt and angry , but to do that , that -- lucas : adrienne , adrienne , come on , i think we should go now . that 's enough . adrienne : you 're right . okay , all right . listen , i 'm sorry . lucas : look , i got ta go out of town in the morning , but when i get back , i 'll have a talk with your mom , okay ? i 'll get her to concentrate on ej and back off abigail . will : okay , but look , it -- dad , it 's not just abigail that i 'm worried about . what 's gon na happen to johnny and allie and sydney with ej in jail and mom on -- lucas : do n't worry about it , okay , do n't worry about your little brother and your little sister , i 'll take care of them . if i have to , i 'll get 'em out of that house myself . will : thanks , dad . lucas : all right , i love you . will : i love you too . lucas : all right . you ready ? adrienne : good night . will : bye . lucas : sonny , take care , okay ? adrienne : good night . sonny : [ sighs ] my mom is on her high horse again . i 'm so sorry . will : no , what your mom said is true . my mom knows what kind of guy that ej is . for her to take this all out on abigail like this , in front of her mom ? i just -- i ca n't believe her . i ca n't believe any of this . sonny : will . nobody died . everything is gon na be okay . will : keep telling me that . [ baby cries ] sonny : i 'll go . abigail : when i think of the lengths we were willing to go to , you were even planning to have nick killed to keep this from coming out . but if we had just been honest , and told everyone when it happened , i -- do you honestly think that it could be any worse than this ? ej : i 'm deeply sorry for what you 've been through . i 'm getting what i deserve , but samantha should n't be striking out at you . abigail : well , she told ben too . ej : have you had a chance to talk to him ? abigail : i tried , but he got a text message and said he had to go . i 'm pretty sure he just did n't want to hear about it or think about it anymore . i know how he feels . ej : i 'm sure he has a lot of questions . abigail : only one , actually . he ... wanted to know if ... i ever loved you . ben : you can threaten us all you want . you do n't run our lives anymore . clyde : i 'm not threatening you , but i am your daddy , and you do need to show me some respect . ben : i 'll show you how much i respect you ! jordan : no , stop , please ! wh -- do you really expect us to just go back to the way things were ? clyde : no , i do n't expect that at all . i 've made the necessary arrangements . jordan : what does that even mean ? clyde : i 've hired somebody to manage the business while i 'm gone . i see why you two like this town . listen , i know i 've made mistakes . we can get together tomorrow and talk about that , and about how you 're gon na pay me back for everything you put me through . i 'm sure we can come to some understanding . oh , and if you 're thinking about running , i 'd think again if i were you . be a lot harder without these . jordan : you were in my apartment ? clyde : i told the janitor i was your daddy , he let me in . nice cat you got there . jordan : oh , my god . clyde : listen , sweetheart , i did you a favor by taking these . they 're not something you want the police to see , especially when one of those cops is your new boyfriend . rafe : that night we were together ... i 'd just seen gabi , and -- kate : no , i know , i know . you had had way too much to drink . rafe : yeah , i 'm not proud of it . can we just put it behind us ? ben : have you been watching her ? clyde : the two of you are n't gon na be able to draw a breath without me knowing about it . now , i need time to convince you that i 've changed . i ca n't do that if you go running off . so if you need to reach me before tomorrow , i 'm at the salem inn . which is a nice place . a man could get real comfortable there . ben : that bastard . how did he find us ? jordan : no clue . ben : i do n't know what you 're thinking , but i 'm building a life here . i 'm not running again . rafe : i do n't like lying to jordan , but i also do n't want to hurt her . kate : i understand . sami : gilda ! please check on sydney in an hour , make sure she 's sleeping . kate : how 's sydney ? sami : she had a nightmare about her father , that he was lost and she could n't find him . kate : oh , my god . she 's gon na have so much to deal with , given the fact that her father , in the foreseeable future is gon na be behind bars for quite a long time . sami : [ chuckles ] so does that subpoena spell out everything that we need to do ? rafe : yeah , it does , so -- sami : well , as kate said , we 'll get the information to you first thing tomorrow . anything else ? rafe : no . no , that 's it . actually , there is one thing . i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry about what happened to you . sami : are you serious ? you told him my personal life while i left the room ? i 'm -- kate : it 's not like it 's a -- you 've kept it a secret , sami . really , i 'm surprised you have n't gotten a bullhorn yet . sami : well -- that 's not the -- i 'm fine . i can handle this . rafe : i know . i saw the look in your eye . i almost feel sorry for ej dimera . sami : [ chuckles ] harold , see rafe out , please ! huh . kate : what ? sami : you and rafe had a booty call ? kate : [ scoffs ] we could n't help ourselves , okay ? will : thank you , i 'll have to think about it . no , i 'll get back to you tomorrow . thank you . sonny : who was that ? will : my editor at the magazine . they want me to write a cover story . sonny : and you have to think about it ? are you nuts ? will : i do n't know if i can do this . sonny : sure you can . you 're a great writer . will : they want me to write about my mom and ej . ej : what we had is over . so do n't torture yourself about it . abigail : my answer to ben was that whatever happened between us , it had nothing to do with love . sami : i ca n't believe rafe slept with you again . what , has he lost his mind ? kate : hey , hey , hey ! we 're partners , remember ? sami : i thought you found out the information , you know , that jordan 's was hiding from him . kate : i did , and rafe is going to find out soon too . sami : is it enough to break them up ? kate : well , let 's put it this way , rafe is going to find that jordan is n't the wounded , little bird he thinks he needs to protect . sami : okay . what if it 's not enough ? what if it does n't work ? kate : well , then we go on to plan `` b. `` jordan finds out that we slept together . sami : hmm . of course , if you 're the one who tells jordan , rafe 's never gon na forgive you , but all right . kate : oh , i 'm not going to go anywhere near jordan . that honor goes to you . jordan : i 'm the one who stole his money . i 'm the one who convinced you to come with me . if i turn myself in to the police , then the threat is over . ben : do you really think he 's gon na leave me out of this ? jordan , we have to stick together , figure out how to stand up to him . [ phone ringing ] jordan : oh , it 's rafe . ben : answer it . jordan : [ stuttering ] i ca n't . i just need a second to think . ben : you were going to tell rafe anyway . jordan : i was going to tell rafe about a nightmare from my past . but now , it looks like it 's starting all over again . sami : have you completely lost your senses ? i 'm not getting anywhere near jordan . kate : well , it -- it does n't have to be anything deliberate . sami : well , no kidding . but you fight your own battles . i have enough on my plate , thank you very much . kate : oh , really ? so when this secret comes out , you do n't care that rafe could be incredibly hurt ? sami : well , he obviously does n't belong with jordan , but that does n't mean he belongs with you . kate : why are you suddenly so territorial about rafe ? sami : what are you talking about ? i just care , you know , i do n't want to see him get hurt . kate : really ? is that it , or is it because now that you 're through with ej , suddenly rafe is looking better and better ? ej : you 're right . what we had was n't love . as much as i 've always admired and respected you . abigail : so how much longer will you be in here ? ej : i 'm being arraigned tomorrow . my lawyer 's pretty confident i 'll get bail . abigail : and then what will you do next ? ej : i 'm going to do everything in my power to get samantha back . abigail : right . good luck with that . you know , for what it 's worth ... i think you and sami really deserve each other . sami : let me be clear , kate . i do n't need another man in my life . besides , i have n't finished with the one i married . i promised myself i would spend every second of my time making sure that ej 's life is a living hell , and i meant `` until death do us part . `` kate : well , we both know how much those wedding vows mean to you . sami : [ chuckles ] well , they do now . and anyway , if we 're gon na be stuck living together , why do n't we get to work on the `` for richer , for poorer `` part ? | clyde approached jordan and she was shocked to see him . adrienne overheard lucas and sonny talking about abby having an affair with ej . will went to ej to find out how he could cheat on sami with abby . kate told sami that she moved into the mansion . rafe and abe talked about ej 's case . adrienne was upset that ej took advantage of abby . ej told will that he loved sami and did n't mean to hurt her . clyde reminded jordan how her biological father drank himself to death . he also asked jordan if she knew where he could find ben . kate and sami discussed what they are going to do to the mansion . they also talked about their plans to destroy the dimeras . clyde demanded that jordan take him to see ben . she refused to let clyde near her brother . rafe went to the dimera mansion to see sami . | <s>[INST] sami : [ sighs ] [ laughs ] oh , harold , thank you ! you 're a mind reader . kate : do n't thank harold . thank me . welcome home , partner . sami : what the hell are you doing here ? kate : [ slurps ] hmm . i 'm getting started on our plan to drive dimera enterprises into the ground . rafe : well , here you go . state auditor 's case against ej . abe : [ grunting ] well , that 's a pretty strong one . rafe : oh , it is , and i plan on making the most of it . abe : so you 're gon na be burning the midnight oil ? rafe : i 'm gon na start tomorrow . ej 's not going anywhere tonight and i 've got some personal business that i 've been putting off for too long . jordan : [ gasps ] clyde : nice to see you again , sweetheart . surprised to see me text messaging , are n't ya ? i 've learned a lot since you took off . not a soul in sight . looks like the perfect spot for you and me to have a nice , long talk . ben : i know what it 's about , abigail . it 's about you and ej dimera . abigail : how could you -- oh , my god . sami ? ben : she was so mad . i did n't know whether to believe her or not . abigail : well ... if she told you that i slept with ej ... it 's the truth . lucas : so will knows everything ? sonny : [ sighs ] oh , yeah . sami spelled it all out . do you know how abigail 's doing ? lucas : well , how do you think she 's doing ? she just had an affair with ej dimera , and sami 's just spreading it all over town . sonny : mom ? adrienne : tell me i did n't just hear you right . tell me my niece did not sleep with that man . ej : [ sighs ] william . will : i just have one question . how could you cheat on my mom and think that you had a prayer of getting away with it ? sami : okay , just because we work together does not give you the right to come into my house unannounced and start boozing up in my living room . kate : i 'm just making myself at home . sami : this is n't your home . kate : au contraire . i have moved in , roomie . jordan : how did you find me ? clyde : well , you knew i would , did n't ya ? i came real close in houston , but you gave me the slip . that 's when you started using the name `` jordan `` is n't it ? and what kind of a name for a girl is that anyway ? jordan : what do you want ? clyde : is that the way you talk to me after all these years ? i 've been so worried about you . jordan : yeah , i 'm sure . clyde : fathers never stop worrying about their little girls . jordan : you are not my father , you son of a bitch ! clyde : you watch your mouth with me , girl . rafe : so dimera enterprises has to produce a bunch of financial records , huh ? abe : yeah , as subpoenaed by the state 's attorney . rafe : yeah , good luck making that happen . i 'll bet stefano is gon na be running the shredder himself . abe : stefano 's not running much of anything anymore . rafe : what do you mean ? who is ? abe : sami and kate . adrienne : is it true ? sonny : yes . adrienne : does jenn know ? lucas : well , abigail says she does , but i have n't talked to her yet . adrienne : abigail and him ? i mean , it just does n't -- he must 've forced himself on her . lucas : i do n't know . abigail said it did n't work out that way , although i know ej . probably worked on her until he got what he was after . ej : look , i can see how difficult this must be for you , william , and i 'm very sorry that i disappointed you . will : do n't worry about me . it 's mom . when i think about all the times she told me that there were no more secrets between you and her . ej : look , i do n't think you appreciate the entire situation . will : well , mom does . and she 's gon na make sure that everybody else does too . you ever heard that expression , `` hell having no fury like a -- `` ej : `` no fury like a woman scorned , `` yeah . your mother 'll be fine once she cools down . will : no . no , no , no , no , no , no . the only thing that 's gon na cool her down is getting back at you . and she does n't care what that 's gon na do to her or to anybody else . ej : william , you need to understand that i loved your mother . i love your mother more than i 've ever loved any woman in my entire life . will : and this is how you show your love ? by getting a mixed up , grieving girl to have sex with you ? abigail : i know what you must think of me . ben : what i think is that it 's none of my business . abigail : oh . uh , okay , i -- i kind of thought that -- i thought that we were -- but , you know , i guess i was wrong . ben : no , no , no , look , what i 'm trying to say is that i just -- abigail , i do n't want you to be embarrassed . abigail : i 'm more than embarrassed . i mean , i slept with a guy that i do n't even like . i - i acted like a -- ben : like a guy ? abigail : [ sighs ] ben : yeah , hey , do n't do this to yourself . it happened , it 's over now . right ? abigail : right . yes , ben , i swear to you , it was over with ej before i ever even met you , and i do n't even know why it happened . i - i -- when i think about it , i do n't even recognize myself because i was -- ben : abigail , i do n't need to know the details . please . abigail : right . okay . i - i just ... ben , i 'm sorry that i was n't honest with you . my god , i took you to their wedding . ben : no wonder you were so stressed out when i got there . ej was flirting with you and sami was acting like she was your new best friend . abigail : yeah , well , that 's all over now . sami hates me . which is -- i get it , i get it . i 'm just ... i 'm afraid that sami 's not gon na stop until she has ruined my life . sami : you ca n't just move in here . kate : well , actually , i can . sami : who says ? kate : oh , well , you see , the house is owned by dimera enterprises , and you and i share title of c.e.o . to dimera enterprises , so you and i share the house . although i have to say , it was so unfortunate i could only get two trunkfuls of my things delivered tonight . sami : aw , just the pointy hats and brooms ? kate : ugh ! you see , that 's that droll wit that i am just going to love living with . [ chuckles ] but i have to say , i did go ahead and take the master bedroom , you know , because when stefano and i were married , i just loved watching the sunset from that bedroom , so beautiful . sami : [ laughs ] yeah , that 's what you and stefano were doing up there , watching the sunset . kate : would you lighten up ? come on , we 're not gon na spend that much time with each other . there 's more than enough room in this big , old house for both of us , now that we 've kicked ej and stefano to the curb . sami : [ chuckles ] okay , this has been a long , really , really , really long day , and i am just not in the mood to tangle with you . [ grunts ] kate : okay . well , the way i see it , you have two options . you can retire to the library , the billiards room , or any one of the 100 rooms in this house , drink your martinis , pass out , or you can stay here with me and get down to the business of making sure that everyone who has wronged us pays ... and pays and pays and pays . it 's up to you . rafe : so you 're telling me that stefano and ej handed over the running of the company to sami and kate ? abe : i really do n't know how it went down . i assume that the charges against ej did n't play too well with the board , not to mention the outstanding warrant against his father . rafe : so this change in leadership must have come at that big board meeting , right ? abe : the dimeras are finally going down . that 's all that matters to me . rafe : yeah . well , wait , if sami is running the company , then that subpoena should go to her . abe : right . rafe : okay . cancel the process server . i 'm gon na deliver it myself . adrienne : have n't abigail , jennifer , and jj been through enough since they lost jack ? lucas : yeah , they have , adrienne . adrienne : i 'm gon na call jenn . lucas : well , good luck . she 's not answering her phone . adrienne : well , i do n't care . i 'm gon na leave a message . sonny : mom . adrienne : what ? what ? ej walked all over sami and abigail . they have to know that we 're on their side . ej : william , i 'm sorry , i do not want to talk about abigail . will : then i 'll do the talking . abigail is my cousin , and i have known since last winter that something 's been up with her . she finally told me that it was a guy , she would n't say who , of course , but it never entered my mind that this guy could be you . i was so sure that you loved my mom . ej : i love your mother ! william , i will always love your mother ! look , i - i - i 'm fallible , and i made a mistake , and i 'm sorry , and it 's ruined two people 's lives ! will : your own brother had just broken abigail 's heart . chad still loved her when he left salem and you knew that . you knew all of it , and you still went to bed with her . what is wrong with you ? jordan : [ grunts ] [ winces ] clyde : after all this time , i did n't think we 'd start out like this . jordan : you are not my father . clyde : from the moment i married your mama , i thought of you as my own , and after we lost her , i was all you had . that lowlife whose name is on your birth certificate never wanted anything to do with you . jordan : do n't talk about my father like that ! clyde : you still got him on a pedestal , do n't you ? you were n't even five years old when he drank himself to death . jordan : that is not -- clyde : please , could we sit down and have a visit ? i want to hear all about you . i 've been so worried about you and your brother . have you heard from him ? ben : there is one thing i 'd like to know , and then we never have to mention ej dimera again . abigail : okay . ben : this time that we 've , you know , had together , getting to know each other , has this just been your way of trying to forget him ? sami : kate , is n't it bad enough that we have to work together ? do you really want to see my face every night across the dinner table ? kate : no . [ sighs ] but when that son of a bitch finds out that we are living here together , drinking his brandy together , and plotting his demise together , he 's gon na go out of his mind , and i think that is worth it , do n't you think ? sami : i suppose . kate : you know another thing i 'm gon na do , as soon as i have a moment , i think i am going to get a decorator into this man cave . maybe some flourishes , some chintz . but that abomination is gon na be the first thing that goes . sami : well , now we 've found one thing we can agree on . [ chuckles ] kate : actually , i think we can find more common ground than that . i have file folders here for each division of the company , and i 've divided them into two groups , group `` a , `` group `` b. `` group `` a , `` these are the ones that we are going to kill ourselves to make profitable . sami : and group `` b `` ? kate : well , group `` b `` is where stefano and ej have invested the bulk of their personal assets . those are the ones -- sami : that are gon na crash and burn . kate : oh , by george , you 've got it . you feeling better now ? sami : you know what ? i think i do . kate : [ chuckles ] jordan : i have n't heard from ollie . i do n't have a clue where he 's at . clyde : and here i thought you were smarter than to lie to me right off the bat . jordan : i 'm not lying . clyde : do you think i just rolled into town last night ? i 've been here for a couple of days getting all my ducks in a row . i been watching you . i been watching him too , ben , as he calls himself now . so how about the three of us get together for a little family reunion ? right now . jordan : i 'm not letting you anywhere near my brother . abigail : i may have made a lot of mistakes , but i swear to you , i 'm not using you to forget about ej . i was over ej before you and i ever even met , and what he and i had , it was -- it was n't about love , it was -- it was nothing even close to that . ben : what was it about then ? abigail : uh -- i ca n't say . ben : are you sure you were never in love with him ? maybe you still are . ej : look , william , the relationship that i have with your mother is -- it 's very complex . will : how about you and abigail ? was that complex too ? or did you just see that she was vulnerable , and decided to go in for the kill ? ej : [ laughs ] i did n't take advantage of abigail . look , you 're gon na think of me whatever you 're gon na think of me , and i understand that i ca n't do anything about that , i get it , but when it comes to abigail and your mother -- will : look , i realize that they need to take some responsibility for this mess . mostly , i just think that they -- they did n't want to see you for the man that you really are . maybe i did n't either . i so wanted to believe that you 'd changed . so did mom . but you have n't . you 're a dimera . you will always put what you want before anything else . ej : i 'm gon na get her back , william . will : which one ? my mom or abigail ? sami : [ scoffs ] [ doorbell ringing ] sami : yeah , but if all of these companies in group `` b `` start hemorrhaging money , do n't you think that the board will lose faith in us ? kate : well , not if group `` a `` is doing gangbusters . the board does n't care about where it comes from , they just want to see profits in the end . [ knocking at the door ] sami : yes ? kate : come in . sami : what is it , harold ? harold : detective hernandez is here . kate : oh , great , show him in . rafe : oh . hi , ladies . kate : detective hernandez . it 's happy hour at the manse . could i offer you a martini ? sami : [ laughs ] rafe : [ laughs ] no , no thanks . but what i would like to know is , what the hell 's going on ? jordan : i 'm not calling ben . i 'm not setting him up for you . i do n't care what you do to me . clyde : you 're smart enough to know i have people watching my boy , right now . do you want to know if he 's okay ? abigail : ben , you have to understand that when things with ej and i started , i -- [ phone ringing ] ben : i have to go . abigail : wait , but ben , i -- ej : you know full well i 'm talking about your mother . we have two kids , we 're a family , and we 've worked through a lot tougher things than this in the past . once i get out of this mess , i 'm gon na go convince her that she is the only woman that i love and the only woman that i want to be with ! will : save it for someone who cares . i 'm sorry that i ever trusted you . i 'm not gon na make that mistake again . rafe : so ... this is a subpoena . the state 's attorney 's office has requested certain financial documents from dimera enterprises . kate : can i see it ? rafe : mm - hmm . kate : oh , well , these are the divisions that we were just talking about , sami . hmm . absolutely , we would be more than happy to comply with the subpoena tomorrow morning . rafe : great . not even gon na consult with ej or stefano , huh ? kate : well , you see , we 're rather tired of answering to men . sami : [ laughs ] yes , and we have decided to run dimera enterprises our way . rafe : oh , cool . although that 's got ta be kind of awkward , considering you just married ej . sami : do n't remind me . [ knocking at the door ] harold : i 'm sorry to interrupt . miss sydney is out of sorts , ma'am . she 's asking for you . sami : oh , of course . thank you , harold . i - i have to go to her . kate : no , that 's okay , go . sami : okay . rafe . rafe : sami . so , you and stefano -- kate : there is no me and stefano . rafe : ah . is there a sami and ej ? 'cause i 'm kind of getting the feeling -- kate : well , there was a sami and ej , but then sami found out that ej cheated on her . jordan : you know , you might as well give up . he 's not gon na show . he got that message , and he took off in the other direction . clyde : nice try , but he knows you 're alone with me right now , and if he 's half the man i raised him to be , he 'll show . and that 's a good thing , 'cause after all these years , three of us have a lot to talk about . and i must say , time has been good to you . you 're even prettier than the day you left . ben : get away from her . clyde : [ chuckles ] hello there , ollie . or would you rather me call you by your new name ? ben : i do n't want you to call me anything . has this bastard told you what he wants yet ? clyde : i 'm getting a little disappointed with the way you two are treating this reunion . a stranger might hear you and think i was the one who done you wrong , instead of the other way around . ben : you can tell yourself that garbage , but do n't tell it to us . we know the truth . do you really think tracking us down means anything 's changed ? clyde : it means i have my family back , and i 'm not letting 'em out of my sight again . ben : we 're not kids anymore , and you 're getting to be an old man . i do n't know what you think you can do to us now . clyde : well , then , let me lay it out for you . first , i can get the law on you . you two stole a whole bunch of money from me , and tammy , you abducted a minor and took him across state line . that 's a federal offense . now , you both know i was real unhappy when you took off . you do n't even want to think about making me that unhappy again . [ footsteps approaching ] abigail : we both knew the truth was going to come out . did n't we ? adrienne : okay , honey , are you gon na be able to sleep tonight ? okay , honey . i 'll see you tomorrow . i love you . how 's the baby ? sonny : sleeping like an angel . adrienne : she 's the only one . lucas : what did jenn say ? adrienne : that she found out about ej and abigail because sami showed up and acted like a total bitch . sonny : mom , sami was really hurt . she thought of abigail as a friend . adrienne : yeah , but she had to know that this was all ej 's doing . sonny : it does n't sound like it 's all ej . adrienne : oh , come on , i talked to abigail . she was defending him . he talked about reading her father 's book , and how impressed he was . he snowed her . and i should have realized what was going on from the get - go , but for sami to go over to jenn 's house and -- [ door opening ] will : [ clears throat ] what 's going on ? adrienne : i 'm sorry , will . i really tried with your mother . in fact , i felt so bad for her when ej was arrested , but now -- lucas : adrienne , please , calm down . will : no , let her talk . what did my mom do now ? rafe : ej cheated on sami . is that a fact ? kate : oh , yeah . rafe : with who ? anyone i know ? kate : abigail deveraux . rafe : [ chuckles ] wow . kate : i know . i guess she was n't as innocent as we all thought . it 's kind of ironic , is n't it ? rafe : how 's that ? kate : well , sami cheated on you with ej . rafe : i know , that was the end of things . kate : [ sighs ] and then ej cheats on her , destroying everything that she thought they were . rafe : well , sami made the mistake of thinking that ej could change . kate : at least you and jordan are happy . rafe : yeah . means a lot to me . kate : i want you to know that jordan is never going to find out that the two of us were together the other day . rafe : yeah . i thought we both agreed that was a mistake . kate : i know . i know , and i know if jordan found out that we slept together again , it would certainly destroy her . adrienne : your mom did n't just tell jennifer about ej and abigail . she had pictures and she showed them . will : you 're sure ? adrienne : jennifer told me herself . now , look , i know your mom is hurt and angry , but to do that , that -- lucas : adrienne , adrienne , come on , i think we should go now . that 's enough . adrienne : you 're right . okay , all right . listen , i 'm sorry . lucas : look , i got ta go out of town in the morning , but when i get back , i 'll have a talk with your mom , okay ? i 'll get her to concentrate on ej and back off abigail . will : okay , but look , it -- dad , it 's not just abigail that i 'm worried about . what 's gon na happen to johnny and allie and sydney with ej in jail and mom on -- lucas : do n't worry about it , okay , do n't worry about your little brother and your little sister , i 'll take care of them . if i have to , i 'll get 'em out of that house myself . will : thanks , dad . lucas : all right , i love you . will : i love you too . lucas : all right . you ready ? adrienne : good night . will : bye . lucas : sonny , take care , okay ? adrienne : good night . sonny : [ sighs ] my mom is on her high horse again . i 'm so sorry . will : no , what your mom said is true . my mom knows what kind of guy that ej is . for her to take this all out on abigail like this , in front of her mom ? i just -- i ca n't believe her . i ca n't believe any of this . sonny : will . nobody died . everything is gon na be okay . will : keep telling me that . [ baby cries ] sonny : i 'll go . abigail : when i think of the lengths we were willing to go to , you were even planning to have nick killed to keep this from coming out . but if we had just been honest , and told everyone when it happened , i -- do you honestly think that it could be any worse than this ? ej : i 'm deeply sorry for what you 've been through . i 'm getting what i deserve , but samantha should n't be striking out at you . abigail : well , she told ben too . ej : have you had a chance to talk to him ? abigail : i tried , but he got a text message and said he had to go . i 'm pretty sure he just did n't want to hear about it or think about it anymore . i know how he feels . ej : i 'm sure he has a lot of questions . abigail : only one , actually . he ... wanted to know if ... i ever loved you . ben : you can threaten us all you want . you do n't run our lives anymore . clyde : i 'm not threatening you , but i am your daddy , and you do need to show me some respect . ben : i 'll show you how much i respect you ! jordan : no , stop , please ! wh -- do you really expect us to just go back to the way things were ? clyde : no , i do n't expect that at all . i 've made the necessary arrangements . jordan : what does that even mean ? clyde : i 've hired somebody to manage the business while i 'm gone . i see why you two like this town . listen , i know i 've made mistakes . we can get together tomorrow and talk about that , and about how you 're gon na pay me back for everything you put me through . i 'm sure we can come to some understanding . oh , and if you 're thinking about running , i 'd think again if i were you . be a lot harder without these . jordan : you were in my apartment ? clyde : i told the janitor i was your daddy , he let me in . nice cat you got there . jordan : oh , my god . clyde : listen , sweetheart , i did you a favor by taking these . they 're not something you want the police to see , especially when one of those cops is your new boyfriend . rafe : that night we were together ... i 'd just seen gabi , and -- kate : no , i know , i know . you had had way too much to drink . rafe : yeah , i 'm not proud of it . can we just put it behind us ? ben : have you been watching her ? clyde : the two of you are n't gon na be able to draw a breath without me knowing about it . now , i need time to convince you that i 've changed . i ca n't do that if you go running off . so if you need to reach me before tomorrow , i 'm at the salem inn . which is a nice place . a man could get real comfortable there . ben : that bastard . how did he find us ?

[ scene_break ] victor : the bottom line is without my help , this company would go belly up . brad : and why do you even care what happens to jabot ? victor : perhaps because my wife has a substantial investment in this company . brad : perhaps because you want it for yourself . victor : there 's no reason whatever for you to be paranoid about that , bradley . brad : i 'm not paranoid . i just know how you operate . you destroyed my marriage . now you want to take over a company i have my life savings in . victor : your life savings wo n't be worth a damn if this company goes belly up . as for your marriage , i did not destroy that . i am sick and tired of being blamed for everything that goes wrong in your life . it 's about time you take some responsibility . brad : i 've taken plenty of responsibility . what i wo n't do is let you rewrite history ! victor : then you live in the past , if that 's what you feel like doing . i have a company to save , and i 'm going down to accounting . later on , we have a meeting of all the department heads . if you want to join in , you 're welcome .

harley : how do you know there were n't others besides bill ? gus : shut up . can you do that ? can you shut up for me ? because i know you . harley : you do n't know that . gus : i do know you . harley : you do n't . gus : i do know that . yes , i ... look , i do n't think you should get comfortable in here , okay , because i 'm really working on getting you out . so do n't get comfortable , because if you do , a little piece of you will die forever . i ca n't have that . holly : champagne on ice , glasses . candles . where 's the candles ?

holly : i did n't have to . sebastian : oh , so you 're saying that she did n't find my invitation all that too enticing ? holly : i 'm saying she loves her husband . leave her alone . she 's been through enough already . sebastian : how nice . the women of springfield look out for each other . holly : sometimes . sebastian : you know what ? i do n't buy it , holly . not at all . this is getting really old . i have coffee with beth and there you are . i have a drink with olivia and there you are again . this jealousy thing , it 's not as flattering as i thought it would be . holly : you 're right . i was jealous . but i 'm not anymore . michelle : you swear ? bill : swear what ? what ? michelle : you swear that you wo n't tell anybody this ? you wo n't repeat it to anybody , including olivia ? bill : oh , my goodness . that good , huh ? yes , i swear i wo n't tell anyone . michelle : when i got my memory back , i ... i do n't know . it was like a download , you know ? it was like this pure rush of joy and all these emotions and feelings and memories of danny . it was kind of like all of a sudden , all my love for danny just kind of came flooding back to me , you know ? and i found myself in his arms and it just felt like the most natural thing , you know . bill : ah . michelle : we , uh ... bill : i ... michelle : we ... bill : yeah , i think i got it . oh , my . michelle . and you 're still engaged to tony ? what ... ? michelle : yes . no . yes . i mean , i love tony . bill : yes , but you love danny . michelle : right . bill : interesting . michelle : glad you think so . bill : so what ... oh , my god . what 's next ?

michelle : yeah , we always were , were n't we ? bill : yeah , we always were . my goodness . it is so good to have you back . michelle : it 's good to be back . and i have advice for you . bill : really ? michelle : yeah , it 's simple : do n't be an idiot . bill : oh . lizzie : granddad . granddad , please . i do n't like it when you 're upset with me . just stop . alan : elizabeth , you are my first grandchild and you know how very special you are to me , but when i make a request to you , i expect you to honor it . it would be wise to remember that in the future . lizzie : granddad , you do n't understand ... alan : you are a spaulding and with that comes many rewards but also a very large responsibility . the number one rule is , no matter where you are or what you 're doing , family comes first . do you understand that ? all right . now , let 's go in and discuss your involvement with this cooper boy . lizzie : i am not involved with coop at all . alan : well , then it will be a very short discussion . could i get you some juice or maybe a soda ? olivia : gin and tonic . alan : what 's this ? olivia : i decided to take you up on your offer , alan . i want to move back in . gus : they 're checking out the new girl . harley : everybody already knows i was a cop . they can spot a fed like you a mile away . you have to leave . gus : all right , in a minute . harley : not in a minute . you know if they think i have an in with a fed i 'm dead meat . get out of here . gus : why do n't you show them how much you hate the feds ? go on . i know you can do it . harley : pig . i do n't owe you anything . gus : oh , look at you . i give you an opportunity . i 'll have you thrown into isolation so fast , your hair will turn gray . harley : you go ahead . i 'm not selling anything . you want information , you get it from somebody else . gus : what is the problem with you ? you know , the mob can not protect you in here . harley : you turned on me in court . the only thing you 're going to get is my shoe in your crotch . gus : you mean your shoe in my ... inmate # 3 : all right ! gus : everybody knows that you were on the take . harley : yeah , look who 's talking . why do n't you get out of here ? gus : i am . i 'm done with you . i 'm done . harley : guard ! gus : you had your shot . now you can go to hell . all right ? harley : good . i hear the food 's better there , anyway . ( laughter ) gus : you lock her up . inmate # 1 : good work . he ai n't coming back . harley : yeah , i think i 've seen the last of him . sebastian : so , what did you do ? did you attend a 12-step stalkers anonymous meeting ? holly : i had an epiphany , and it 's all come together for me tonight . sebastian : hm . congratulations . let me know when you make a week and i 'll give you your button . holly : do you think you 're really all that appealing ? sebastian : ( chuckles ) you tell me . holly : well , i was drawn to you because of your father and because you seemed to want me all to yourself , which , though disturbing , was very seductive . and you did terrible things to me but somehow i just could n't get you out of my mind , and i admit that i took the deal with spaulding as a way to get into your inner circle . sebastian : that occurred to me . holly : bad idea . but what you have done is show me what i 'm missing . and it 's not you . i feel i 'm back on track now . i feel that i 'm focused on my career , which you tried to tear me away from . and i 'm excited about working for spaulding . so , our paths may cross , but i think i can say that i am free of you . sebastian : well , you know , i am deeply wounded . holly : yeah , well , you 'll get over it . see you around , sebastian . sebastian : one more kiss goodbye , darling ? holly : no . no . too late for that . alan : welcome home , olivia . i will have hilda prepare your and emma 's suite , and i can guarantee you anything you need , just let me know . olivia : i would expect nothing less , alan . i 'll get the rest of my things . alan : do you need any help ? olivia : uh - uh . you have been more than enough help . and you , you better be careful or that face is going to freeze like that . lizzie : if she 's moving in , i 'm moving out . alan : now , wait , wait . elizabeth . lizzie : no . alan : elizabeth , please . lizzie : no ! alan : listen to me . lizzie : how could you do this ? how could you ... you know what she did to dad . what happened to your basic rule , `` family comes first `` ? alan : emma is family . she needs to be here with her granddad and with her sister . as far as olivia , she wo n't be here long . lizzie : you 've got to promise me that . alan : you leave it to me . have i let you down yet ? michelle : so , do you still love olivia ? bill : yes . michelle : and is there anybody else ? bill : no . michelle : well , good . see , you 've got that going for you . i mean , i 'm so confused it 's all spinning around in my head . i want to be with tony , but ... bill : danny is danny , right ? michelle : yeah . danny is danny . but that 's not the point . the point is , you know who you love , and that 's the important thing . bill : you know what ? i hurt her . she has a hard time trusting and i nailed her with this . michelle : well , then you apologize , right ? you just grovel . you get past it . i mean , if she 's worth it ... bill : she is worth it . she is . michelle : then give it your best shot , lewis . bill : you 're right . you are absolutely right . when she comes home , i 'm going to pull out all the stops . coop : come on ! you know what ? phillip , your family is so screwed up . and that lizzie , i 've got to tell you , man , props to the guy who ever figures her out , because i certainly can't . you hear that , lizzie ? i ca n't figure you out ! okay . now , where did that come from ? guard : welcome to the vailsburg hilton . harley : i 've seen worse . guard : your cell mate 's in the yard . enjoy your privacy while you can . harley : 25 years . guard : new prisoner is in her cell , warden . warden : good . thank you . guard ? guard : yes , warden ? warden : the new inmate ? guard : yes , sir ? warden : never mind . have her report to my office first thing in the morning . guard : your office ? do you know this prisoner , warden mallet ? warden : no . she 's only my ex - wife . gus : what 's this ? `` do n't you hate it when somebody gets away with murder ? `` next , on `` guiding light . `` jonathan : i told you , reva 's out of town . no , you can't ... where are you ? olivia : what do you want ? bill : i want you to come home , that 's what ... olivia : you should have thought about that before you slept with harley . bill : yeah , well you should have thought about that before you tried to blackmail my father , sold out lewis construction , turned your back on harley . should i go on ? alan : i 'm sorry to intrude , but hilda wanted to know if you and emma were happy in your suite , olivia . if not , she will be happy to move rooms . | sebastian tries to seduce olivia in her time of need , but she refuses to let him . she shows up to the spaulding mansion and moves in . coop consoles lizzie after she has a breakdown at phillip 's grave . alan sees them together and orders lizzie to fire coop . she refuses . holly pays a visit to bill and tells him that olivia is in danger because of sebastian . harley is put into her cell , but is disturbed when the other women try to hurt her . gus comes in to rescue her by helping her stage a fight between the two of them . this impresses the other inmates . coop returns to phillip 's grave and is disturbed to find that a rose has been placed on it . the grave is still being watched . michelle tells bill that he needs to get olivia back , and bill agrees . gus receives a note asking if he hates it when someone else gets away with murder . | <s>[INST] gus : every time i think about harley in that hell hole , it just makes me hate everybody , including you . but it does n't make me hate anybody more than myself . and you know what makes it worse ? there is a killer out there and he 's laughing . he 's laughing at us , thinking he got away with murder . alan : do n't do this to yourself , gus . it 's over . gus : it 's not over , dad . it 's not over until she is home taking care of her boys . so i 'm not going to stop fighting for her . you know , you want to blame anybody , you should be blaming him . he 's resting in peace here while he left us all to rot in the hell that he left behind . and nobody tried to destroy him ; he self - destructed . and then he tried to take everybody else down with him , so if there 's anybody responsible for this misery we are all in , it 's him . harley just got caught in the headlights . how could you turn on her like that , phil ? the mother of your own child . why could n't you just leave her alone ? and now your son has no parents at all . is that the way you wanted it ? is that the way that you wanted it , you selfish ... ( bottle breaks ) huh ? you power - hungry freak ! alan : your brother is dead and you show him some respect . gus : my brother is lying in the tomb , okay ? harley is actually the one who 's dying . so , he gets to rest in peace and she 's actually in torment . that does n't seem fair to me . coop : i quit . lizzie : what ? coop : your keys . lizzie : what ? what ? whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . what are you doing ? coop : oh , wake up , lizzie . i quit . lizzie : why ? coop : my father had a heart attack . my sister is now in prison . you 've taken our restaurant from us and evicted us from our home . you 've taken everything away from us and now you 've turned our life into an episode of `` survivor , `` and now you 're asking me why i want out ? lizzie : okay , but this has been happening for years . i do n't get why today all of a sudden . coop : why today ? ( laughs ) macaroni and cheese . that 's why . bill : why do you keep looking at me like that ? huh ? ( knock on door ) i knew it . i knew it . i knew that ... hey . hey , holly . holly : hello , bill . bill : uh , olivia 's not here . she ... holly : i know she 's not here . i came to find you . your wife , bill , is in danger . sebastian : it 's a good thing we found each other tonight . olivia : yeah , it 's very convenient , is n't it ? sebastian : you are so distrustful . olivia : self - protective . i 've learned my lesson , you know ? men just want to fix things for women . they want to save us . marry us to keep us in the country . let us fall in love with you , and then bam . sebastian : so bill let you fall in love with him ? olivia : it was a business arrangement , not a match made in heaven . we had our eyes wide open . we negotiated and we laid out terms . sebastian : and somewhere along the line , the music swelled and everyone else faded into the background and it all became about love . olivia : yeah , pretty much . sebastian : sweet . olivia : ( laughs ) sweet . i was screwed the minute the `` l `` word was mentioned . sebastian : ( laughs ) i hate it when a deal goes sour . guard : pictures . harley : i 'm keeping these with me . guard : you 'll get them back later . harley : you ca n't have them . i know the rules . i used to be a ... guard : used to be a cop ? everybody around here knows about it , too . big day for some of our girls . pictures ? let 's go . olivia : do n't read too much into this . right now i would drink with the devil himself . sebastian : ( laughs ) well , he 's busy . i checked . olivia : ( laughs ) well , in that case , you 'll do . sebastian : good . so , relax , enjoy your drink . let it all out , and if you need it , i have a very strong shoulder that you can cry on . olivia : crying over a man is a waste of time . sebastian : better to follow your head than succumb to the heart . olivia : really ? then why is it that men follow what 's in their pants ? sebastian : ( laughs ) are we talking about men like bill ? olivia : men . all men . they do n't know what they have until they have somebody else . but see , i should have seen it coming . when something seems too good to be true ... sebastian : your husband was n't too good to be true , olivia . you are too good for your husband . olivia : and what about you ? am i too good for you ? bill : holly , please . olivia and sebastian hulce ? when you said she 's in danger , i 'm thinking natural disaster , car accident , killer bees , something else . holly : you do n't know him . bill : well , you know what ? i 've got to know him a little bit and he is definitely not olivia 's type , so ... holly : do n't underestimate him . you can stop it before it starts . bill : i 'm sorry . `` it ? `` holly : your wife is alone with him right now and i doubt they 're playing scrabble . bill : well , i 'll tell you something , if they 're playing scrabble , she 's winning because she 's pretty good . holly : you 're not going to do anything ? bill : holly , why do you care so much ? holly : i know what he is capable of . bill : yeah ? well , you know . holly : i thought you loved your wife . fine . do n't do anything . bill : i do love my wife , i just do n't want to chase her and look like a fool . lizzie : wait , wait , wait , wait , wait . macaroni and cheese ? we can add that to the menu . have people been requesting it or something ? coop : oh , please , lizzie . lizzie : oh , right , that 's what i get for trying to make my employees happy ? that 's great . really . coop : the macaroni and cheese was n't for me . it was for zach and jude . do n't worry , i did n't use any of your cheese . lizzie : stop that . you know good and well they can eat there whenever they want . coop : yeah , i know ! i know they can . i was cooking for them over at the bauers . i tried making the boxed stuff . it does n't taste like mom 's . i tried making the canned stuff . it still does n't taste like mom 's . i tried five different ways to cook macaroni and cheese for them , but in the end , they were crying their eyes out and my dad had to give them ice cream for dinner . ice cream for dinner , lizzie . lizzie : okay , look , i am really trying to understand this here , but i ... what , you 're upset because you do n't make good macaroni and cheese ? coop : no , i 'm not . i 'm upset because my nephews are not going to be able to get a good bowl of macaroni and cheese for the next 25 years . harley is in prison for not killing your father here . i ca n't keep coming to work for you guys every day knowing what you 've done to my family . lizzie : i 've got an idea . come with me , coop . coop : no . no . i 'm sick and tired of taking orders . lizzie : coop , come on ! stop it . just this last time , okay ? if you do n't ever want to go again , you do n't have to ever see me , ever . coop : deal . inmate : ooh . harley : you have something to say , why do n't you just say it ? inmate # 1 : ooh , she 's a cop all right . ( laughter ) ordering everybody around . guard : clear out , all of you . inmate # 1 : i 'm sorry , i have n't had my snack yet . inmate # 2 : you know how we get when we 're hungry . guard : out . inmate # 3 : catch you later . inmate # 2 : bye . guard : you better buck up . it only gets tougher . harley : i 'm okay . guard : you want some advice ? keep to yourself , watch your back and steer clear of the new warden . harley : why ? what 's his problem ? guard : he 's a real tough guy . black and white , by the books . word is , he 's here to straighten us all out . you do n't want to get on his bad side . harley : thanks for the heads up . it 's not the warden i 'm worried about . gus : phillip tore two families apart and then he made sure that his son would never have parents . are you proud of that ? i need to know . are you proud of your son ? because i 'll tell you , i am not proud to be his brother . alan : enough . phillip is not here to defend himself . gus : he does n't need anybody here , does he ? he 's got you and he has had you all of his life . and now that he 's dead , you 're like his avenging angel or something . and you know what 's really strange about you , that 's come to my attention ? you do n't care who shot him , do you ? no , you 'd rather busy yourself with whoever you can just watch suffer . alan : you know , it would be very easy to blame everything that 's happened on me and your brother , but what you 're really mourning , gus , is your own failure to save harley . 12 people on a jury convicted her and sent her to prison . you took the risk of defending her when you knew you could n't win the case . now it 's finished . it is over . get on with your life . gus : that 's not really going to work , because i do n't have a life without her . alan : you have a future with spaulding , and do n't you forget , you and i had a deal . gus : i do n't know . maybe phillip 's got it right . maybe death is the only way out of this family . alan : i 'm only thinking about what 's best for you , gus . gus : no , i do n't believe that . i think that you really think that the wrong son died . ( twig snaps ) what was that ? gus : somebody 's watching us . alan : gus , listen ... gus : i know what i 'm talking about . alan : no , i do n't think you do , because you 're obsessed and thinking someone is out there , but nothing is there . no one . gus : somebody is out there . somebody who put a bullet in phillip , that 's who 's out there . alan : listen . listen to me . gus : leave me alone . leave me alone . alan : i am not going to leave you alone . you are in pain , and i feel for you . gus : oh , no . no , do n't give me this , okay ? you hate me . can we just say it out loud ? you hate me . you have since the trial . alan : i do not hate you . i hated that you sided against me and defended the enemy . gus : oh , the enemy ? alan : but the bottom line is , i am your father and right or wrong , i love you , and i am not going to lose you like i lost phillip . now , come on . let 's go home . gus : no , i 'm not going home . alan : gus ... gus : no !

what are you doing here , anyway ? your turn to dance on phillip 's grave ? huh ? lizzie : no , granddad . i brought him here . alan : why ? lizzie : because i wanted him to understand something . alan : listen to me , elizabeth . the coopers and the spauldings will never come to any kind of understanding . the best thing you can do is distance yourself from him . lizzie : he works for me . alan : then fire him . lizzie : what ? alan : you heard me . i am not going to lose another one of my family members to theirs . fire him ! coop : she ca n't fire me . i 've already ... alan : do n't say another word . this will be very good exercise for you now that you 're a business owner . you have to learn to fire people . now , i want you to tell him that you 'll give him two weeks ' severance pay and his work now is finished . lizzie : no . alan : what did you say ?

[ laughs ] travis : what do you think ? victoria : it 'd be good . billy : it 's a nice day for a swim . victoria : billy . hi . um ... uh , this is travis . billy : yeah , we 've actually -- we 've met . how are you ? do you have a minute ? victoria : um , would you mind getting us a drink ? billy : [ clears throat ] travis : iced tea ? victoria : yeah , that 'd be perfect , thank you . billy : office closed today ? victoria : i do n't punch a time clock , billy . billy : no , you do n't because you 're the c.e.o . that 's right . it 's a nice day . it 's a nice pool . that 's -- that 's a nice guy . it 's nice to have a little `` me `` time , or should i say `` we `` time ? you know what would be great , is if the kids were here to enjoy it . victoria : are you actually calling me out as a mother right now ? do n't do that , billy . you 're the one who bailed on the kids last weekend , last minute , okay ? you do n't get to judge me . are we clear on that ? jack : good to have you back . but you did not need to come home early for me . phyllis : well , i did . and i 'm here . you ca n't get rid of me . jack : yeah . now . you gon na have to go back and finish what you started ? phyllis : i do n't know . i do n't know , but this is where i 'm at , so ... i was worried . after our talk . jack : all i said was it was a long day . phyllis : yeah , i know , but your long day sounded ominous . what 's going on ? jack : oh , it 's complicated and , frankly , disheartening . people are gon na get in real trouble . all of the details are ugly and shocking and i suddenly was faced with having to decide how to handle it . phyllis : so i take it you 're not gon na give me any names or specifics ? jack : i hope you 're okay with that . phyllis : well , knowing you and understanding how much you always want to protect me , yes , i understand . so what did you decide ? jack : i decided to help . not that i approve , but it seems the right thing to do in the present circumstances . sometimes good people do bad things . i guess you have to know that their heart 's in the right place . sharon : so , here are some new possible vendors to look over . you were saying that you needed some higher - quality cashmere for the winter line . this company is widely respected . chelsea : wow . have i mentioned you 're a godsend ? because you 're a godsend . i really needed some help right now . sharon : uh , well , i 'm happy to do whatever it takes . and i 'm grateful for the opening because i did n't know how to bring this up . chelsea : bring what up ? sharon : well , since sage is gone , there 's a hole in the company , both emotionally and logistically . we need help . so i was going to suggest bringing mariah into the company , if it 's not too soon to talk about it . chelsea : no , you 're -- you 're right . i mean , it 's -- it 's been hard , you know ? thinking about sage being gone , but we need somebody , especially since ... [ sighs ] since i 'm gon na be splitting my time again very soon . sharon : oh , because of the trial ? how are you and adam doing ? chelsea : uh ... [ sighs ] it 's kind of like one extended mood swing , you know ? some days are hopeful . other days are not - so - hopeful . we just keep trying to bolster each other 's spirits and be brave . but it 's hard , you know . like , i watch him with connor , and i know what he 's doing . he 's imagining his future and he 's imagining all of the time he 's gon na miss out on , potentially , with his son . he 's thinking about all of the moments he could lose , the big ones and the small ones . and then i think about connor . without his father . i mean , we already lost adam once , and now we have him back , and we could lose him again . it 's just not right . i mean -- it 's not right . they need each other . their bond is so real and so special . it is a father - son bond , and that should be honored , you know ? that should be respected , and it feels -- i 'm so sorry . you know what ? i 'm rambling . i should n't -- i 'm sorry . i 'm rambling . sharon : no . no , you make perfect sense to me . chelsea : [ sighs ] yeah . i mean , you understand , of course , because of sully and his daddy . sharon : yes . i do understand . chelsea : sharon ? are you all right ? sharon : um , yeah . i 'm fine . i just -- i got distracted . sometimes i make lists in my head , and i was just thinking , we might need to order that cashmere soon . just something to think about . chelsea : okay . well , you have a lot on your plate and i do appreciate all of your hard work , and i think your suggestion about mariah is a good idea . i think that we should move forward with that . are you sure you 're okay ? sharon : um ... i 'm fine . everything ... everything 's fine . summer : yes , we will update you as soon as we can . luca : no , do n't even mention it to your lunch meeting . not a word until you hear from this office . summer : yes , we 'll keep you posted . oh , thank god you 're here . nick : what have we got ? luca : the spill was at a refinery up north . summer : a valve from a storage tank was locked into the `` open `` position . luca : and the oil just gushed right out . as of right now , it 's unclear how it all happened . nick : any word from vick ? summer : um , no , she 's not answering her cell phone . i spoke to the nanny that stayed with the kids overnight . i mean , what if something happened to her ? nick : something probably did happen -- travis . summer : yeah , we actually ran into him at crimson lights , and i kind of got the impression that things were over for them . nick : yeah , well , i heard they were n't going well . i just told her to patch things up . luca : why would you do that ? nick : because it 's her life . she likes him . he likes her . being with someone is better than being alone . that 's a fact . luca : yeah , but this guy travis ? how can he be good for victoria when it means she 's mia during yet another crisis ? look , this is her office . she 's ceo . instead , she 's off doing god knows what with her bartender boyfriend . billy : that 's interesting , because you come into my house and judge me nonstop , except you and your behavior is off limits ? that 's good to know , victoria . victoria : you know what ? i 'm fine with you moving on . in fact , i want you to move on , but not if it means my kids walking in on a weekend with you and wine and women . so , yes , i had legitimate concerns about johnny and katherine . you 're just pissed off because i 'm dating a new guy . [ cell phone rings ] travis : hello ? luca : travis . this is luca santori . it 's very important that i speak with victoria now . is she with you ? travis : how did you get this number ? luca : from whoever was manning your bar . is she with you or not ? travis : hang on . victoria . it 's the office for you . is your phone dead ? victoria : um , i do n't know . hi . uh , this is victoria . luca : there 's been another oil spill . we 've been trying to call you all morning . victoria : uh ... my , um ... [ sighs ] my -- my battery 's dead . okay . i 'll be right there . do n't do anything until i get there . okay . bye . i have to go . travis : do you what you got to do . billy : you know , victoria playing hooky at newman enterprises is not the same as you skipping out on your bar . travis : i 'm aware of that . billy : i used to own a little , uh , drinking establishment myself . it 's not a lot of customers this time of the day , so it 's easy to kind of bail on your responsibilities . except you never know whose lives you 're affecting when you do that . travis : look , billy , between her work and her kids , i do n't want to make victoria 's life any more complicated than it already is . so , if we could find a way to get along , i 'm in . billy : yeah , that 's really sweet , travis , but you and i are never gon na be buddies , so you can dump that where it belongs . meredith : oh , sorry . adam : here you go . meredith : oh . thank you . adam : surprised to see me here , i bet , right ? meredith : a little bit . [ laughs ] adam : not that this is n't sufficiently awkward , being that you 're the star witness in the prosecution 's case , so i 'll go . meredith : um , i 'm not . i 'm not anymore . i actually have a meeting with the da to retract my statement . i wo n't be testifying in your trial . adam : suppose you tell me jack : thank you for not needing more details about this little disaster . phyllis : i know all i need to know -- that you are a good and generous man and a better friend than most people deserve . jack : wow , you came all the way back from montreal to tell me that . phyllis : to be with you . i 'm here with you . it 's a wife thing . it 's what we do . jack : no , it 's a phyllis thing -- it 's what you do . you 're tough , you 're ornery sometimes , but ... you 're loving and loyal like nobody i know , and i ca n't tell you how grateful i am for that . and i never want you to think i take it for granted for one second . phyllis : just too good for words . jack : hey ! billy ! billy : hey . how are you two ? jack : good . phyllis just got back from a trip to montreal . billy : is that right ? uh , yeah ? how was your trip ? it was good ? phyllis : yeah . it was pass key business . billy : oh , look at that . i suddenly lost interest . phyllis : yeah . jack : my wife went to one of the most beautiful cities in the world with great restaurants , and she comes back with no details at all . please tell me it was n't all work , that you had some pleasure mixed in there . summer : no , just focus on your own department . you will get an update from us when we 're ready . nick : there she is . victoria : all right , luca gave me the overview , but now i need specifics . luca : the focus is on the open valve . i just learned that the valve - control backup and security systems were both disabled remotely , giving anyone access to the valve . so there was someone off - site and someone on . summer : which means that it was not an accident . one leak can be explained , but two in one month -- that 's just sabotage . nick : there 's really only one suspect . victoria : dad . i just do n't know how he could arrange for this from inside prison . i mean , he 'd have to gain access to the software to shut down two systems and somehow arrange for the physical opening of a valve . luca : they have internet access in prison . victoria : but that would n't give him direct access to the facility . there are safeguards and firewalls . you know , there are only a couple of computers with direct access , and my laptop happens to be one of them , but even then you need a correlating i.d . card to send out and activate the correct codes . luca : did anyone have access to that computer since last night ? [ door opens ] adam : thank you . victor : what do you want ? adam : well , that 's not a very nice way to greet me . was i interrupting an intense game of solitaire ? it 's a little joke . i came to see what your next move was . victor : queen of clubs on king of hearts . adam : okay . meredith is recanting . she 's refusing to testify against me , and since i know damn well she 's dying to get me behind these bars ... i 'm curious to know -- what , did you tell her to back off ? victor : all you need to know is that she will not contradict your witness ian ward 's testimony . that should make you happy . adam : yeah , but i -- i sort of figured there was no way in hell you 're gon na let ian 's testimony go unchallenged , so what 's -- what 's your big secret ? what do you got up your sleeve ? you got a fake maid that saw me put some poison in poor old constance 's tea , or do you got a security guard that doctored up some footage ? what 's -- what 's going on ? victor : i will testify . adam : you ? victor : i 'll be there to reply to ian ward 's claims . i 'm complying with the district attorney 's office to give my testimony . adam : oh , your testimony . which is what , exactly ? victor : oh , the truth . adam : you 're gon na -- [ laughing ] you 're gon na tell the truth -- all right . so you 're gon na -- you 're gon na say that these murder charges are bogus , that you set me up , that you 're blackmailing me ? i do n't see that happening . victor : i do n't know what you did or did n't do , okay ? but i know that meredith , the prison doctor , had no right to go to the chief of police with information i did not give her . adam : so now you 're gon na testify . you 're gon na testify because you are so hell - bent on ruining my life because you refuse to take responsibility for your own actions , and you think i 'm responsible for you being in here , do n't you ? victor : you certainly contributed to my being in here , did n't you ? hmm ? but i can tell you with all sincerity ... i have a perfectly clear adam : your conscience is clear . victor : mm - hmm . adam : how could it not be ? you do n't have one , right ? because whatever it is that you want , you think you 're entitled to it . it does n't matter , collateral damage . you 've ruined another man 's life ? who cares , right ? you got what you wanted . you destroy another man 's family ? who the hell cares ? victor newman got what he wanted . he 's king of the universe , right ? victor : if you end up in here , that 's your fault , no one else 's . adam : why , because i would n't kowtow to every single thing that you wanted ? be your lap dog ? victor : how can i frame you from in here ? be serious . adam : you do it the same way you do everything else , dad . you get somebody else to do your dirty work for you . and this time , you 've figured out someone who does n't give a damn about me or my family , for that matter . victor : i do n't give a damn about my family ? talking about family , how 's your son ? how 's connor , my grandson ? how 's he ? adam : i 'll show you , actually ... how he 's doing . chelsea : where 's connor ? [ gasps ] peek - a - boo ! adam : there he is ! all right ! chelsea : where did he go ? oh , there he is ! adam : you know what you 're looking at there ? ready to face the day . that 's a son that loves his father . chelsea : yes , it was . adam : when was the last time you experienced something like that ? probably ca n't remember , right ? because you managed to take every single person that ever cared about you , including me , dad , and you pushed us away . victor : get out . adam : familiar words . `` get out . `` i will leave . i 'll tell you what . i 'm not gon na abandon my son . no matter what . so whoever the hell you 're working with ... i 'm gon na find out who it is . victor : good luck to you . [ door closes ] billy : i 'd like to stick around , but i got some brash & sassy ! stuff to take care of , so , uh ... have fun catching up . jack : we will . phyllis : see you soon . billy : yeah . jack : i am not picking up a montreal vibe from you at all . you know what ? the next time you have a meeting there , i think you need to bring me with you . phyllis : well , i would be working , and you would be bored . besides , we are both right here , right now . jack : so , what do you say we follow billy 's advice , then , and spend a little time catching up ? at home . in fact , we could spend the whole day catching up . what do you say ? victoria : i said you need a proper computer and connections . my computer is obviously not the only option . luca : you said you 'd need an id , and yours is right there with the computer -- victoria : which is right by my side . luca : was it all night ? even when you slept ? victoria : what exactly are you trying to accuse me of , luca ? you know , i am the c.e.o . of newman . nick : the valve is shut , the leak is over , but the press issue is just beginning . summer : okay , now , anger is not gon na solve any of this . we just have to be calm and logical . we 're just trying to gather facts so we can get to the bottom of this problem . victoria : by trying to pin it on travis . luca : i never said travis -- victoria : oh , do n't be such a child . of course you 're trying to implicate travis . everybody in the room knows that that 's what you 're trying to do , but it does n't make any sense , does it ? he 's not a corporate spy . he owns a bar . summer : well , he 's not exactly pro - newman enterprises . luca : yeah , and when he was on wall street , his focus was oil and energy . victoria : which he tried to get as far away from as he could . luca : look , we had this conversation after the last spill -- victoria : yeah , and you were wrong the last time , too , were n't you ? luca : these disasters started after you met travis . you ca n't deny that . victoria : true , because i went into a bar and i had a drink to get away from this chaos . come on . it 's not like travis saw me on the street and said , `` come on into the bar and have a drink so i can steal your laptop and create an environmental disaster . `` luca : well , maybe someone recruited him . maybe someone hired by victor , like nick said . look , they could have just had you followed and learned how you were spending your time . victoria : yeah , because normal people have other people followed . nick : all right , look , this is going off the rails fast . victoria : you 're right . let 's end it right now . i 'll go talk to travis . nick : i do n't like it . luca : yeah , neither do i . so i 'll go . if we 're wrong and he 's innocent , it wo n't be you he 's angry at . summer : yeah , actually , you know what ? that 's -- that 's a good idea . nick : then your relationship is protected . victoria : [ scoffs ] fine . go . talk to him . sharon : go away , go away , go away , go away . victoria : look , as far as the press is concerned , newman is either completely inept because we 've had two oil spills within the last month , or we 're under siege and being attacked from an outside source and , um , did n't have enough security measures in place . nick : we already told the press sabotage was involved in the first leak . victoria : but we did n't stop whoever did this . we let it happen again . we need to figure out who did this . we have to find out who 's behind this thing . [ sighs ] nick : it might not be travis . victoria : i know . but it could have been , and that 's the point . i was careless and i was really stupid . i still believe that it probably was n't him , but ... nick , if it was , how could i be so foolish ? luca : we need to talk . travis : i 'm listening . phyllis : i would love nothing more than to go home with you tonight , but they need me at the office . jack : i am buddies with the ceo . i could probably loosen up your schedule a bit . phyllis : nepotism is n't pretty . jack : okay , i can wait for tonight , if i must wait . phyllis : i 'll see you soon .

[ next_on ] devon : do n't tell me that we just grew apart . there 's more going on here than just that . i want to know what it is . meredith : how was your visit with your wife ? luca : who knew someone so prim and proper | sharon continues to see sage wherever she sleeps and feels even more guilty about keeping baby christian away from nick . victoria is busy with travis while newman enterprises suffers another oil spill . luca suggests to victoria that travis is working for victor to make her look like a bad ceo . victoria does n't believe the allegations but allows luca to go talk to travis and find out the truth . chelsea is worried that adam will go to jail for a crime he did n't commit , but he is confident things will be fine and he will stay out of jail to be with his family . adam visits victor who says he will do anything he has to do to be with his family . victor tells adam he persuaded meredith gates not to testify at his trial , but he will take the stand against him . billy feels jealous when he sees victoria with travis , and he argues with her , because he does n't think she is spending enough time with the kids . phyllis feels guilty about her affair with billy and she turns down jack one more time when he wants to spend romantic time with her . victor calls his female accomplice from the prison infirmary and asks her to do him another favor . | <s>[INST] chelsea : where 's connor ?

chelsea : okay , well , maybe we should skip the bear part . adam : ooh , even better . chelsea : mm . meredith : after you and ian fought , you were sent to solitary and he was sent to me , and i had to treat him while he snickered at me and made these insinuations . he tried to convince me that , uh , you 're out to set up your own son . victor : he was playing head games with you . meredith : well , he was very convincing . victor : well , that does n't surprise me . you know , he was the leader of a cult for years . you did n't believe him , did you ? meredith : not entirely , but i needed time to think . and you did n't answer my note . ian is going to take the stand for adam 's defense . he plans on lying and saying that you confessed to framing your own son . victor : why , why , why , why , why , why , why . well , there 's nothing i can do from inside these walls here . meredith : well , i am not bound by these walls . i can do something , and i did do something . victor : what do you mean , you did something ? meredith : i went and i spoke to chief williams and his wife , the district attorney , and i told them what you told me , that adam is guilty and you 're protecting him . victor : but , meredith , with all due respect , i did n't ask you to do that . it was not your place . meredith : they 're going to ask me to testify , to be a witness . now , i ca n't let ian ward make you out to be the criminal . if he gets his way , the jury will believe that you framed adam . victor : they wo n't . not if i get up on the stand and tell them it 's a damn lie . travis : nothing bad ever came out of taking the morning off . trust me on this . victoria : i do trust you . you 're an excellent role model . travis : [ laughs ] our only mistake was actually getting out of bed . victoria : [ laughs ] travis : the pool does look good , though . victoria : yeah , it looks nice . up for a swim ? that would be fun . travis : yeah ? there 's no one else here . victoria : i know . [ laughs ] travis : what do you think ? victoria : it 'd be good . billy : it 's a nice day for a swim . victoria : billy . hi . um ... uh , this is travis . billy : yeah , we 've actually -- we 've met . how are you ? do you have a minute ? victoria : um , would you mind getting us a drink ? billy : [ clears throat ] travis : iced tea ? victoria : yeah , that 'd be perfect , thank you . billy : office closed today ? victoria : i do n't punch a time clock , billy . billy : no , you do n't because you 're the c.e.o . that 's right . it 's a nice day . it 's a nice pool . that 's -- that 's a nice guy . it 's nice to have a little `` me `` time , or should i say `` we `` time ? you know what would be great , is if the kids were here to enjoy it . victoria : are you actually calling me out as a mother right now ? do n't do that , billy . you 're the one who bailed on the kids last weekend , last minute , okay ? you do n't get to judge me . are we clear on that ? jack : good to have you back . but you did not need to come home early for me . phyllis : well , i did . and i 'm here . you ca n't get rid of me . jack : yeah . now . you gon na have to go back and finish what you started ? phyllis : i do n't know . i do n't know , but this is where i 'm at , so ... i was worried . after our talk . jack : all i said was it was a long day . phyllis : yeah , i know , but your long day sounded ominous . what 's going on ? jack : oh , it 's complicated and , frankly , disheartening . people are gon na get in real trouble . all of the details are ugly and shocking and i suddenly was faced with having to decide how to handle it . phyllis : so i take it you 're not gon na give me any names or specifics ? jack : i hope you 're okay with that . phyllis : well , knowing you and understanding how much you always want to protect me , yes , i understand . so what did you decide ? jack : i decided to help . not that i approve , but it seems the right thing to do in the present circumstances . sometimes good people do bad things . i guess you have to know that their heart 's in the right place . sharon : so , here are some new possible vendors to look over . you were saying that you needed some higher - quality cashmere for the winter line . this company is widely respected . chelsea : wow . have i mentioned you 're a godsend ? because you 're a godsend . i really needed some help right now . sharon : uh , well , i 'm happy to do whatever it takes . and i 'm grateful for the opening because i did n't know how to bring this up . chelsea : bring what up ? sharon : well , since sage is gone , there 's a hole in the company , both emotionally and logistically . we need help . so i was going to suggest bringing mariah into the company , if it 's not too soon to talk about it . chelsea : no , you 're -- you 're right . i mean , it 's -- it 's been hard , you know ? thinking about sage being gone , but we need somebody , especially since ... [ sighs ] since i 'm gon na be splitting my time again very soon . sharon : oh , because of the trial ? how are you and adam doing ? chelsea : uh ... [ sighs ] it 's kind of like one extended mood swing , you know ? some days are hopeful . other days are not - so - hopeful . we just keep trying to bolster each other 's spirits and be brave . but it 's hard , you know . like , i watch him with connor , and i know what he 's doing . he 's imagining his future and he 's imagining all of the time he 's gon na miss out on , potentially , with his son . he 's thinking about all of the moments he could lose , the big ones and the small ones . and then i think about connor . without his father . i mean , we already lost adam once , and now we have him back , and we could lose him again . it 's just not right . i mean -- it 's not right . they need each other . their bond is so real and so special . it is a father - son bond , and that should be honored , you know ? that should be respected , and it feels -- i 'm so sorry . you know what ? i 'm rambling . i should n't -- i 'm sorry . i 'm rambling . sharon : no . no , you make perfect sense to me . chelsea : [ sighs ] yeah . i mean , you understand , of course , because of sully and his daddy . sharon : yes . i do understand . chelsea : sharon ? are you all right ? sharon : um , yeah . i 'm fine . i just -- i got distracted . sometimes i make lists in my head , and i was just thinking , we might need to order that cashmere soon . just something to think about . chelsea : okay . well , you have a lot on your plate and i do appreciate all of your hard work , and i think your suggestion about mariah is a good idea . i think that we should move forward with that . are you sure you 're okay ? sharon : um ... i 'm fine . everything ... everything 's fine . summer : yes , we will update you as soon as we can . luca : no , do n't even mention it to your lunch meeting . not a word until you hear from this office . summer : yes , we 'll keep you posted . oh , thank god you 're here . nick : what have we got ? luca : the spill was at a refinery up north . summer : a valve from a storage tank was locked into the `` open `` position . luca : and the oil just gushed right out . as of right now , it 's unclear how it all happened . nick : any word from vick ? summer : um , no , she 's not answering her cell phone . i spoke to the nanny that stayed with the kids overnight . i mean , what if something happened to her ? nick : something probably did happen -- travis . summer : yeah , we actually ran into him at crimson lights , and i kind of got the impression that things were over for them . nick : yeah , well , i heard they were n't going well . i just told her to patch things up . luca : why would you do that ? nick : because it 's her life . she likes him . he likes her . being with someone is better than being alone . that 's a fact . luca : yeah , but this guy travis ? how can he be good for victoria when it means she 's mia during yet another crisis ? look , this is her office . she 's ceo . instead , she 's off doing god knows what with her bartender boyfriend . billy : that 's interesting , because you come into my house and judge me nonstop , except you and your behavior is off limits ? that 's good to know , victoria . victoria : you know what ? i 'm fine with you moving on . in fact , i want you to move on , but not if it means my kids walking in on a weekend with you and wine and women . so , yes , i had legitimate concerns about johnny and katherine . you 're just pissed off because i 'm dating a new guy . [ cell phone rings ] travis : hello ? luca : travis . this is luca santori . it 's very important that i speak with victoria now . is she with you ? travis : how did you get this number ? luca : from whoever was manning your bar . is she with you or not ? travis : hang on . victoria . it 's the office for you . is your phone dead ? victoria : um , i do n't know . hi . uh , this is victoria . luca : there 's been another oil spill . we 've been trying to call you all morning . victoria : uh ... my , um ... [ sighs ] my -- my battery 's dead . okay . i 'll be right there . do n't do anything until i get there . okay . bye . i have to go . travis : do you what you got to do . billy : you know , victoria playing hooky at newman enterprises is not the same as you skipping out on your bar . travis : i 'm aware of that . billy : i used to own a little , uh , drinking establishment myself . it 's not a lot of customers this time of the day , so it 's easy to kind of bail on your responsibilities . except you never know whose lives you 're affecting when you do that . travis : look , billy , between her work and her kids , i do n't want to make victoria 's life any more complicated than it already is . so , if we could find a way to get along , i 'm in . billy : yeah , that 's really sweet , travis , but you and i are never gon na be buddies , so you can dump that where it belongs . meredith : oh , sorry . adam : here you go . meredith : oh . thank you . adam : surprised to see me here , i bet , right ? meredith : a little bit . [ laughs ] adam : not that this is n't sufficiently awkward , being that you 're the star witness in the prosecution 's case , so i 'll go . meredith : um , i 'm not . i 'm not anymore . i actually have a meeting with the da to retract my statement . i wo n't be testifying in your trial . adam : suppose you tell me jack : thank you for not needing more details about this little disaster . phyllis : i know all i need to know -- that you are a good and generous man and a better friend than most people deserve . jack : wow , you came all the way back from montreal to tell me that . phyllis : to be with you . i 'm here with you . it 's a wife thing . it 's what we do . jack : no , it 's a phyllis thing -- it 's what you do . you 're tough , you 're ornery sometimes , but ... you 're loving and loyal like nobody i know , and i ca n't tell you how grateful i am for that . and i never want you to think i take it for granted for one second . phyllis : just too good for words . jack : hey ! billy ! billy : hey . how are you two ? jack : good . phyllis just got back from a trip to montreal . billy : is that right ? uh , yeah ? how was your trip ? it was good ? phyllis : yeah . it was pass key business . billy : oh , look at that . i suddenly lost interest . phyllis : yeah . jack : my wife went to one of the most beautiful cities in the world with great restaurants , and she comes back with no details at all . please tell me it was n't all work , that you had some pleasure mixed in there . summer : no , just focus on your own department . you will get an update from us when we 're ready . nick : there she is . victoria : all right , luca gave me the overview , but now i need specifics . luca : the focus is on the open valve . i just learned that the valve - control backup and security systems were both disabled remotely , giving anyone access to the valve . so there was someone off - site and someone on . summer : which means that it was not an accident . one leak can be explained , but two in one month -- that 's just sabotage . nick : there 's really only one suspect . victoria : dad . i just do n't know how he could arrange for this from inside prison . i mean , he 'd have to gain access to the software to shut down two systems and somehow arrange for the physical opening of a valve . luca : they have internet access in prison . victoria : but that would n't give him direct access to the facility . there are safeguards and firewalls . you know , there are only a couple of computers with direct access , and my laptop happens to be one of them , but even then you need a correlating i.d . card to send out and activate the correct codes . luca : did anyone have access to that computer since last night ? [ door opens ] adam : thank you . victor : what do you want ? adam : well , that 's not a very nice way to greet me . was i interrupting an intense game of solitaire ? it 's a little joke . i came to see what your next move was . victor : queen of clubs on king of hearts . adam : okay . meredith is recanting . she 's refusing to testify against me , and since i know damn well she 's dying to get me behind these bars ... i 'm curious to know -- what , did you tell her to back off ? victor : all you need to know is that she will not contradict your witness ian ward 's testimony . that should make you happy . adam : yeah , but i -- i sort of figured there was no way in hell you 're gon na let ian 's testimony go unchallenged , so what 's -- what 's your big secret ? what do you got up your sleeve ? you got a fake maid that saw me put some poison in poor old constance 's tea , or do you got a security guard that doctored up some footage ? what 's -- what 's going on ? victor : i will testify . adam : you ? victor : i 'll be there to reply to ian ward 's claims . i 'm complying with the district attorney 's office to give my testimony . adam : oh , your testimony . which is what , exactly ? victor : oh , the truth . adam : you 're gon na -- [ laughing ] you 're gon na tell the truth -- all right . so you 're gon na -- you 're gon na say that these murder charges are bogus , that you set me up , that you 're blackmailing me ? i do n't see that happening . victor : i do n't know what you did or did n't do , okay ? but i know that meredith , the prison doctor , had no right to go to the chief of police with information i did not give her . adam : so now you 're gon na testify . you 're gon na testify because you are so hell - bent on ruining my life because you refuse to take responsibility for your own actions , and you think i 'm responsible for you being in here , do n't you ? victor : you certainly contributed to my being in here , did n't you ? hmm ? but i can tell you with all sincerity ... i have a perfectly clear adam : your conscience is clear . victor : mm - hmm . adam : how could it not be ? you do n't have one , right ? because whatever it is that you want , you think you 're entitled to it . it does n't matter , collateral damage . you 've ruined another man 's life ? who cares , right ? you got what you wanted . you destroy another man 's family ? who the hell cares ? victor newman got what he wanted . he 's king of the universe , right ? victor : if you end up in here , that 's your fault , no one else 's . adam : why , because i would n't kowtow to every single thing that you wanted ? be your lap dog ? victor : how can i frame you from in here ? be serious . adam : you do it the same way you do everything else , dad . you get somebody else to do your dirty work for you . and this time , you 've figured out someone who does n't give a damn about me or my family , for that matter . victor : i do n't give a damn about my family ? talking about family , how 's your son ? how 's connor , my grandson ? how 's he ? adam : i 'll show you , actually ... how he 's doing . chelsea : where 's connor ? [ gasps ] peek - a - boo ! adam : there he is ! all right ! chelsea : where did he go ? oh , there he is ! adam : you know what you 're looking at there ? ready to face the day . that 's a son that loves his father . chelsea : yes , it was . adam : when was the last time you experienced something like that ? probably ca n't remember , right ? because you managed to take every single person that ever cared about you , including me , dad , and you pushed us away . victor : get out . adam : familiar words . `` get out . `` i will leave . i 'll tell you what . i 'm not gon na abandon my son . no matter what . so whoever the hell you 're working with ... i 'm gon na find out who it is . victor : good luck to you . [ door closes ] billy : i 'd like to stick around , but i got some brash & sassy ! stuff to take care of , so , uh ... have fun catching up . jack : we will . phyllis : see you soon . billy : yeah . jack : i am not picking up a montreal vibe from you at all . you know what ? the next time you have a meeting there , i think you need to bring me with you . phyllis : well , i would be working , and you would be bored . besides , we are both right here , right now . jack : so , what do you say we follow billy 's advice , then , and spend a little time catching up ? at home . in fact , we could spend the whole day catching up . what do you say ? victoria : i said you need a proper computer and connections . my computer is obviously not the only option . luca : you said you 'd need an id , and yours is right there with the computer -- victoria : which is right by my side . luca : was it all night ? even when you slept ? victoria : what exactly are you trying to accuse me of , luca ? you know , i am the c.e.o . of newman . nick : the valve is shut , the leak is over , but the press issue is just beginning . summer : okay , now , anger is not gon na solve any of this . we just have to be calm and logical . we 're just trying to gather facts so we can get to the bottom of this problem . victoria : by trying to pin it on travis . luca : i never said travis -- victoria : oh , do n't be such a child . of course you 're trying to implicate travis . everybody in the room knows that that 's what you 're trying to do , but it does n't make any sense , does it ? he 's not a corporate spy . he owns a bar . summer : well , he 's not exactly pro - newman enterprises . luca : yeah , and when he was on wall street , his focus was oil and energy . victoria : which he tried to get as far away from as he could . luca : look , we had this conversation after the last spill -- victoria : yeah , and you were wrong the last time , too , were n't you ? luca : these disasters started after you met travis . you ca n't deny that . victoria : true , because i went into a bar and i had a drink to get away from this chaos . come on . it 's not like travis saw me on the street and said , `` come on into the bar and have a drink so i can steal your laptop and create an environmental disaster . `` luca : well , maybe someone recruited him . maybe someone hired by victor , like nick said . look , they could have just had you followed and learned how you were spending your time . victoria : yeah , because normal people have other people followed . nick : all right , look , this is going off the rails fast . victoria : you 're right . let 's end it right now . i 'll go talk to travis . nick : i do n't like it . luca : yeah , neither do i . so i 'll go . if we 're wrong and he 's innocent , it wo n't be you he 's angry at . summer : yeah , actually , you know what ? that 's -- that 's a good idea . nick : then your relationship is protected . victoria : [ scoffs ] fine . go . talk to him . sharon : go away , go away , go away , go away . victoria : look , as far as the press is concerned , newman is either completely inept because we 've had two oil spills within the last month , or we 're under siege and being attacked from an outside source and , um , did n't have enough security measures in place . nick : we already told the press sabotage was involved in the first leak . victoria : but we did n't stop whoever did this . we let it happen again . we need to figure out who did this . we have to find out who 's behind this thing . [ sighs ] nick : it might not be travis . victoria : i know . but it could have been , and that 's the point . i was careless and i was really stupid . i still believe that it probably was n't him , but ... nick , if it was , how could i be so foolish ? luca : we need to talk . travis : i 'm listening . phyllis : i would love nothing more than to go home with you tonight , but they need me at the office . jack : i am buddies with the ceo . i could probably loosen up your schedule a bit . phyllis : nepotism is n't pretty . jack : okay , i can wait for tonight , if i must wait . phyllis : i 'll see you soon . [ door slams ] [ keys jingle ] phyllis : katherine always had the most beautiful garden . i wanted to leave something behind . billy : [ sighs ] [ door opens ] meredith : so , your son visited , did n't he ? victor : yeah . and now he knows that you will not testify at his trial , but that i will . do you mind if i use your phone ? meredith : the warden has made it very clear that he is watching me . i have to be so careful . victor : i understand . meredith : i 'll give you five minutes . victor : five minutes . i swear . you have done very well , my dear . just one more request . chelsea : are you sure you want to do that ? adam : positive . chelsea : what 's going on ? the nanny called and said that she was at the park with connor , but i thought you and connor were having , like , a man date . did something happen ? adam ! adam : i hope that son of a bitch dies in prison . [ next_on ] devon : do n't tell me that we just grew apart . there 's more going on here than just that . i want to know what it is . meredith : how was your visit with your wife ? luca : who knew someone so prim and properSummarize.[/INST]sharon continues to see sage wherever she sleeps and feels even more guilty about keeping baby christian away from nick . victoria is busy with travis while newman enterprises suffers another oil spill . luca suggests to victoria that travis is working for victor to make her look like a bad ceo . victoria does n't believe the allegations but allows luca to go talk to travis and find out the truth . chelsea is worried that adam will go to jail for a crime he did n't commit , but he is confident things will be fine and he will stay out of jail to be with his family . adam visits victor who says he will do anything he has to do to be with his family . victor tells adam he persuaded meredith gates not to testify at his trial , but he will take the stand against him . billy feels jealous when he sees victoria with travis , and he argues with her , because he does n't think she is spending enough time with the kids . phyllis feels guilty about her affair with billy and she turns down jack one more time when he wants to spend romantic time with her . victor calls his female accomplice from the prison infirmary and asks her to do him another favor .</s> | 17,400 |

[ scene_break ] ryan : madden has been lobbying kendall to put our son up for adoption . even found a perfect couple and shoved the couple in her face . now , luckily , i was there and i told him to back off . julia : so kendall 's leaning towards adoption now ? ryan : no , no , she has n't -- she has n't decided anything . julia : i do n't get it . he 's offering your child up for adoption ? what does madden get out of it ? ryan : i do n't know . i do n't know . i just know that he 's working kendall , and she 's confused , and he 's playing it and he 's almost got her convinced . julia : but kendall knows how you feel -- you want to raise him . ryan : yeah . but all i want right now is i want kendall just to relax . i want her to chill so she can think clearly , which means i want her as far away from madden as possible . now , i told her i want her to find another doctor and , i mean , she agreed . she agreed to dump madden . [ scene_break ] kendall : ryan wants what 's best for this baby just as much as i do . greg : when ryan found out that greenlee was pregnant , he played dead because he could n't handle it . when he finally showed up in time to discover that you were carrying his child , he was enraged . now you tell me he wants what 's best for the child . kendall : ryan could 've walked away , but he did n't . he asked for parental rights because he wants to be totally part of this . greg : considering his history -- kendall : no , no , do n't even use his past against him . ryan 's just trying to do the right thing . greg : ryan does n't want the baby put up for adoption . neither you nor ryan will commit to raising the child . does ryan have a solution ? kendall : no , he does n't . neither of us do , but that does n't mean that we do n't care . i mean , ryan is already in love with this child -- who he 's going to be , what he 's going to be like . i wish that i could feel that connected . what ? greg : no . i 've offered you enough of my opinions . kendall : no , you 're the expert here . i need all the advice i can get . greg : i 'm glad ryan 's not signing on as a single parent . his role model was -- how shall we say -- lacking . kendall : well , a lot of people come from not - so - great homes and they make great parents . greg : from what i understand , ryan did n't receive much love as a child . you tell me that he loves this child . there 's an enormous difference between loving a child and needing to possess that child . do you think he understands that ?

liam : quinn will be fine . she always is . bill : hey , where the hell is will in all this ? wyatt : out of the house with the nanny the whole time . bill : good . katie , accused of taking a shot at quinn . wait 'll brooke hears about this . brooke : ridge , there 's no reason for us to ever talk about quinn at all . unless , of course , it 's about business . and what happened happened . and you both said you 're sorry . and we do n't need to say anything else to anybody as long as you stay away from each other . ridge : yeah , well , actually , there is one thing -- brooke : oh , no . please . let 's -- it 's in the past . we need to move forward . ridge : i understand you do n't want to talk about quinn . i get that . but there 's something you should know . something happened . brooke : what happened with quinn ?

[ scoffs ] the best years of my life were spent with the forresters . as part of their family . making amends means everything to me . i 'm trying to put my life back together again , katie . but have you ever been to prison ? katie : uh ... sheila : no . no . of course -- of course you have n't . but you know what ? take it from me . it is not fun . i never want to go there again . katie : and that 's where you 've been ?

katie : get out of my house ! sheila : katie , i 'm sorry , but i 'm not going anywhere . eric : is it pointless for me to ask you how you are ? quinn : oh , i 'm still a little bit shaky . eric : hmm . i 'll be steady for you . quinn : i know . you always are . [ sighs ] i ca n't believe somebody tried to shoot me . and i 've been on my best behavior ! at least i think i have been . i ... i 've been just going over and over in my head , who -- who did i upset ? who did i make mad ? and the only person i can come up with is katie , but ... the gunshot- residue test cleared her , so ... who wants me dead ? bill : hmm . [ muffled ] so ... how about we just turn this around ... and , uh , do it all again ? but for like , you know , six months or so ? brooke : [ giggles ] it was an amazing honeymoon . but the dollar bill spencer i know would n't loaf around europe for six whole months . bill : yeah , he would , with you by his side ... wife . [ brooke chuckles ] wyatt : ohh , kissy , kissy . liam : oh . brooke : oh , no ! [ laughs ] bill : oh , really ? liam : you know , guys , the honeymoon was over when you stepped foot in the building . bill : nah , honeymooners for life . brooke : [ sighs ] you know , liam could be right . it 's time to get back to real life . bill : but you see what i have to deal with . really ? do i have to ? bill : [ laughs ] yes , you do . and so do i . so if you need me , i will be at forrester . bill : i do . brooke : mm . mm , okay . well , then , i 'll see you at home later . [ both chuckle ] liam : i do n't want to know what you do at home . wyatt : yeah . ugh ... brooke : goodbye , boys . wyatt : bye . liam : [ chuckles ] bye . bill : now that 's a woman . liam : yeah , and your wife , no less . took you long enough . wyatt : about damn time . bill : and , believe me , we 've been making up for it as much as humanly possible . wyatt : yeah , we could leave that out . liam : that 's , uh , too much information . wyatt : we 're happy for you . bill : thank you , sons . wyatt : yeah . bill : so , what did i miss ? wyatt : well , um ... someone tried to shoot my mom . ridge : so , that 's all we know . whoever shot at quinn is still out there . pam : that 's scary . ridge : it is scary . she 's pretty shaken . pam : but who do you think would want to kill quinn ? ridge : i do n't know . pam : i mean , in the past [ chuckles ] i mean , just wait in line . take a number . but since she 's been with eric , even you can see that ... she 's different . ridge : `` even `` me ? pam : i mean , not so long ago , ridge , you would 've been one of the first people in that line . but you and quinn have come a long way . bill : somebody tried to kill your mother ? wyatt : yeah , that or scare her . and they did a good job , too . she was alone at the house , she was out on the patio , and then all of a sudden a bullet flies by her head . we 're talking inches away , here . bill : i suppose i should ask how she 's doing . wyatt : you know ... do n't hurt yourself . bill : well , wyatt , come on . you know , i mean , you 're my son . i love you . but quinn -- not a big fan . liam : yeah , well , that makes two of us . not that anybody wants her dead , right ? bill : any word on the shooter ? wyatt : actually , she pointed a finger toward katie . bill : katie ? ! pam : i would be terrified if i was quinn . i mean , what if the shooter comes back ? has another , more successful attempt ? ridge , you know what , we should put charlie on quinn full time . really . until the cops arrest this nutcase . ridge : okay . thank you . i think , if we need security , we 'll try to find someone that does n't leave his gun ... you 're home . brooke : yes . we are . pam : i - i 'll just get back to work , and leave you two alone . welcome back , brooke ! pam : thanks , pam . ridge : i missed you brightening up the place . you look happy . brooke : [ sighs ] i am . and i 'm committed to my husband . ridge : and that would be me if i had n't screwed up with quinn . quinn : katie held a gun on me . she was n't shy about using it . it made sense that she would take the next step and -- and fire it . you know , when i thought she was avoiding the police , i went up to her house again to confront her , and , well , that was when i met her friend sheila . eric : well , katie 's been cleared by the police . they performed this gunshot- residue thing on her , and it came back negative . although it is alarming that she pulled a gun on you . quinn : clearly the woman hates me . eric : she 's hurt and angry that she was fired . pulling a gun on somebody is unacceptable , but katie 's no killer . believe me , i know what i 'm talking about . i 've dealt with that kind of a woman before . sheila : i 'm not going anywhere until you listen to me . katie : i do n't need to hear anything you have to say , sheila . sheila : would you please just put that down ? katie : what are you doing in my house ? oh , my god . it was you . you tried to kill quinn because she 's eric 's wife . bill : i know katie . i was married to her . twice . yes , she can get mad as hell . she 'll throw things . yells . but nobody ever got shot . including me . and one could argue that i gave her plenty of reason . liam : i mean , quinn does have a knack for provoking people . wyatt : [ exclaims ] liam : com -- dude . you know it 's true . she pushes and pushes and pushes until you snap . and i know , because i did . wyatt : okay , fine . bill : all right , so , nothing happened , right ? katie 's cleared . that 's what you said . wyatt : right . bill : so case closed . now , as far as who took a shot at quinn ... i mean , take a number . it could be anybody . wyatt : somehow , this conversation with my father and -- and brother is not making me feel comforted right now . does no one care that my mother -- i mean , as flawed as she is , yes , but still my only one -- could end up dead ? liam : quinn will be fine . she always is . bill : hey , where the hell is will in all this ? wyatt : out of the house with the nanny the whole time . bill : good . katie , accused of taking a shot at quinn . wait 'll brooke hears about this . brooke : ridge , there 's no reason for us to ever talk about quinn at all . unless , of course , it 's about business . and what happened happened . and you both said you 're sorry . and we do n't need to say anything else to anybody as long as you stay away from each other . ridge : yeah , well , actually , there is one thing -- brooke : oh , no . please . let 's -- it 's in the past . we need to move forward . ridge : i understand you do n't want to talk about quinn . i get that . but there 's something you should know . something happened . brooke : what happened with quinn ? bill : someone took a shot at her . brooke : what ? is she okay ? ridge : yeah , she 's fine . they missed . brooke : where ? when ? ridge : the patio off the living room . brooke : it was at their house ? do they have any idea who it is ? ridge : the police are talking to katie . sheila : look , i 'm sorry . we just got off on the wrong foot . katie : you broke into my house ! sheila : your window was open . katie : that does n't give you the right to come in and make yourself at home ! sheila : well , i yelled for you , katie . i - i ju -- i just thought i would wait . katie : what do you want ? sheila : you know , you still look scared , katie , and you really do n't need to be . and -- and for the record , i know nothing about a shooting . katie : yeah . well , i -- you know , i 'd love to believe you . but i do know about all those horrible things that you -- you did . sheila : well , that was a long time ago . i did my time . i 'm a different person now . katie : why are you here ? sheila : i want your help . katie : my help ? sheila : you 're reasonable . you 're fair - minded . i think , if you vouch for someone , it 'll stick . katie : you want me to vouch for you ? ! sheila : i want you to talk to eric and the forresters on my behalf . i - i want you to start by saying how -- how friendly and reasonable i 've been with you here , that -- that there 's been absolutely no trace of the old sheila . the forresters were a very big part of my life , and i just want to make things right with them . and you can make that happen . so , katie , what do you say , huh ? help me out ? [ cell phone chimes ] eric : oh , my god . quinn : honey ? what is it ? eric : [ sighs ] the woman you saw up at katie 's ? quinn : her friend ? eric : yeah , she 's not a friend . it 's my ex - wife . quinn : that 's sheila carter ? eric : yes . and if she 's back in the picture , everything 's starting to make terrible sense now . quinn : what are you talking about ? eric : she 's dangerous . she 's killed people . she 's been in and out of jail . there 's been rumors of identity change . my god . if sheila is here ... then i think we just found our shooter . eric : sheila 's with katie right now . she could be in danger . look , call ridge . get him up here to the house . i do n't want you to be alone . quinn : eric , wait a second . if sheila is as dangerous as you say she is , you can get hurt . do n't you think we should call lieutenant baker ? eric : i think i can handle sheila . get ridge up here . bill : katie being hauled off to the police station like a common criminal . that 'll put a damper on brooke . wyatt : i do n't think it was that dramatic , dad . liam : yeah , i think she drove herself . it 's not like she was arrested or anything . bill : however it went down , brooke 's gon na be upset . i should call her , give her a heads up . liam : brooke went to forrester , right ? bill : yeah . liam : so she probably knows all about it by now . brooke : thank god they cleared katie . but of course they would . who would ever believe that katie would shoot quinn ? ridge : i agree . she 's not gon na shoot anybody . but someone out there is targeting quinn . brooke : you seem really concerned . ridge : what ? no . i 'm -- brooke : you better be careful , ridge . ridge : careful of what ? brooke : that . the denial . you got involved with quinn because of your self- destructive behavior . but maybe , just maybe , you do have some real feelings . ridge : whatever happened between me and quinn , that 's in the past . but that does n't mean i want some lunatic shooting at her . no , it was n't katie . i know that . but someone is out there , and i got to find out who it is . katie : you know , i do n't have any reason or desire to help you , so ... my answer is no . you can leave now . sheila : all i 'm asking you to do is to put in a good word for me with eric and his family . to -- to just help influence him . is that so hard to do ? katie : did you shoot at his wife ? sheila : no ! of course not . i 've -- i have been locked up . i 'm rehabilitated . i do n't just shoot people anymore . katie : [ scoffs ] oh , okay . yeah . great . sheila : look , stop -- stop looking at me as the woman i was in the past . look at me as the woman standing right here in front of you now . am i holding a gun on you -- forcing you to say these things , katie ? no . i 'm not . i 'm asking you nicely .

[ scene_break ] kristina : did anyone say when kiefer 's funeral would be ? alexis : i do n't think his parents have made plans yet . kristina : what if his parents do n't want me there ? they probably think this is all my fault . alexis : kristina , you 've got to stop doing this . you can not lose sight of the fact that he 's the reason that you 're here . diane : hi , sweetheart . oh , you 're looking so much better . kristina : i look awful , but thanks for the flowers . diane : anytime , sugar . just want to see you back up on your feet again . in fact , anything that you need , either of you , i am right here . kristina : did you hear about kiefer ? he got hit by a car . diane : i heard . kristina : whoever it was , they did n't even stop to see if he was okay . they just left him there to die . i did n't even get to say good - bye . diane : i 'm sorry , kristina . i 'm so sorry for everything that 's happened to you . alexis : can i see you outside ? diane : sure . alexis : we 'll be right back . diane : yes . yes ! i am not sorry . that rat bastard kiefer got everything he deserved for beating up kristina . alexis : this needs to be protected by attorney - client privilege . diane : oh , god . what now ? alexis : it was me . i did it . i hit him with the car .

[ scene_break ] ronnie : you know , sonny has a lot of overseas real estate -- hotels , safe houses . there 's a dozen places michael could be stashed . dante : that 's good . knock yourself out . ronnie : yeah , but we do n't have the resources to conduct a global search . and i do n't really think we need to anyway , because you know where your brother is . dante : i should probably be deeply offended for how many times you 've accused me of lying . but the truth is , i have n't seen michael since he was subpoenaed . and it 's irrelevant because his testimony is unnecessary . ronnie : well , if that was actually true , then you 'd have no problem putting michael on the stand . see , because he has a story to tell and i 'm actually interested in it . in the name of justice . dante : but you know , this case is laid out exactly the way we planned for it to . we have enough evidence to convict sonny . we do n't need him to testify against his father . claire : wrong , detective . i want michael corinthos on the stand , and you 're gon na get him for me . [ scene_break ] sonny : now it 's your turn to get back at me for the way i laid into you last night . johnny : you know , we do n't need this . let 's go . olivia : no , it 's okay . john , i 'm used to this . sonny knows he did wrong , and instead of apologizing , he gets defensive . sonny : they 're gon na ask you to get on the stand and tell the truth . you think you can remember how to do that after 20 years of lying to me about my son ? olivia : i got no problem with the truth . you know what , i got nothing left to hide . i got no agenda . believe it or not , sonny , i do n't lie awake at night thinking of ways to punish you . johnny : i can vouch for that . olivia : my conscience is clear . if yours is n't , then that 's your problem . [ scene_break ] jason : so kiefer was the one who had been beating kristina , not ethan . and he did it again last night . when alexis brought kristina to the hospital , she finally id 'd kiefer . spinelli : why would kristina lie ? jason : to protect kiefer . i mean , she did n't want sonny to kill him . spinelli : i guess that 's understandable , that fear of mr. sir , but why not share that same concern for ethan 's life and limb ? jason : well , because i think sonny and luke are long - time friends . and i bet kristina thought that would be enough for sonny not to kill ethan . spinelli : now the battering boyfriend is dead . jason : kiefer was found on the side of the road less than an hour after kristina admitted the truth . spinelli : so then her fears were warranted ? vengeance was exacted on mr. sir 's orders perhaps with stone cold behind the wheel . jason : no , i did n't do anything and neither did sonny . but alexis is the only person who is not suspecting me of running kiefer down . spinelli : and that 's unusual . usually alexis is first in line to suspect you of mayhem . jason : exactly . that 's why i want you to start investigating alexis davis as soon as we get home . [ scene_break ] alexis : i came home and i heard yelling in the house . and then i saw kiefer running out . and then i walked in and i saw that kristina was crumpled in a ball on the floor and she was bruised and bleeding . and i knew in that instant that it was kiefer who had done this to her . it was this boy that i encouraged to go out with her ... that had beat her to a pulp . diane : all right . enough with the mea culpa . you feel like crap because kiefer fooled all of us . shame on us . but it still does n't explain how he ended up dead . alexis : i got her in the car . i did n't want to wait for an ambulance . i got her in the car and i kept talking to her because i did n't want her to go to sleep . and i just felt like i was going to lose it . and i was trying to get control of myself . and i looked up and i saw him . at least i thought it was him . and i hit him . i did n't stop . i did n't swerve . i did n't put on the brake . i just kept going . i drove to the hospital . i did n't mean to do it . i do n't know what happened . i did n't mean to do it .

[ scene_break ] sonny : you gon na get creative on the stand like your boyfriend did ? johnny : every word i said was the truth . sonny : really ? considering i never hit a woman . but i 'm the monster and your sister is the innocent victim . johnny : i 'll be the first to say claudia was no innocent , but you certainly made a victim out of her . sonny : right , right . how about the hell she put my family through , the damage she did ? you can go ahead and finish what you started . olivia : are you hard of hearing ? i 'm gon na tell the truth to the lawyers . nothing more , nothing less . sonny : right . i guess if you make me out to be the vicious animal , it would justify you lying to me about dante . johnny : you know , god knows what would have happened to dante if you would have been around when he grew up . he could be dead by now or he could be brain damaged . sonny : speaking of brain damage , you knew your sister got michael shot , put into a coma , and all you did was cover it up . olivia : sonny , you 're not doing yourself any favors here , okay . sonny : then it 's unanimous . because i know damn well you 're not gon na do any favors for me . johnny : it 's okay .

olivia : that man . sonny corinthos . claire : so when you told the court that mr. corinthos knocked you up , dante falconeri was the result ? olivia : that is correct . claire : is n't it unusual that an undercover officer would be assigned to investigate his own father ? diane : objection , your honor . as the prosecution has already established while leading detective falconeri through his own testimony , the defendant and the detective did not know they were related at the time . claire : until detective falconeri wound up shot and bleeding -- diane : objection , your honor . judge carroll : sustained . strike from the record . ms. walsh , i do not find your courtroom gymnastics entertaining . ask straightforward questions on matters relevant to the case , or i will dismiss the witness . claire : yes , your honor . ms. falconeri , do you know why your son and the defendant did not know they were related ? olivia : because i chose not to tell them . claire : and why would a loving mother not tell her own son about his father ? olivia : do i really have to answer that question ? i was 15 years old , and i was stupid . that 's like asking me why i wore scrunchies and acid wash jeans . it just felt like the thing to do at the time . judge carroll : i agree with ms. falconeri . last chance , ms. walsh . ask something useful or dismiss the witness . claire : ms. falconeri , do you know where michael corinthos iii was on the night claudia zacchara corinthos was murdered ? olivia : i was with mr. corinthos at his house that night . sonny was beside himself with worry because claudia kidnapped carly and she had gone into labor . jax arrived later that night looking for michael . claire : so michael left his house on harbor view road where he resided with his mother and jasper jax ? olivia : that 's why jax was looking for him , yes . claire : and what happened after mr. jax arrived ? olivia : sonny received a call from sam -- samantha mccall . she said that carly had given birth , that carly and the baby were okay , and sonny left shortly after that . claire : and where did he go ? olivia : i did n't ask . he did n't tell . claire : can you describe the defendant 's demeanor after he received the phone call ? olivia : he seemed relieved that carly and the baby were okay . claire : he did n't seem angry or upset ? diane : objection . calls for speculation . judge carroll : sustained . claire : after sonny left his residence , there was still no sign of michael ? olivia : no . claire : was n't anyone worried about him ? olivia : well , i think everyone 's primary concern was for carly and the baby . i do n't think michael was the main focus . claire : and why do you say that ? olivia : well , michael was upset about a fight that took place earlier in the evening between sonny and jax . claire : and what had they fought about ? olivia : sonny came over to the jax household to pick up michael and morgan . jax wanted the boys to stay with him . claire : and was this upsetting for michael ? could this have been the reason why he was incited to climb in the car -- diane : objection . your honor , once again , the prosecution is testifying for her own witness . judge carroll : sustained . ms. walsh , i sense you preparing for another tumbling run . i suggest you reconsider . claire : ms. falconeri , after mr. corinthos left his home after receiving the phone call , presumably to be notified that carly and her child were safe , no one knew where michael was , is that correct ? olivia : as far as i know , yes . claire : thank you , ms. falconeri . no further questions . diane : would it be safe to say that michael 's behavior has been erratic ever since he emerged from his coma a year ago ? olivia : yes . diane : have you ever known michael to disappear before ? olivia : yes . diane : can you elaborate ? olivia : well , he disappeared to mexico last summer . and on one more than one occasion , i know that he 's left his mother 's house to go over to his father 's house without permission . michael 's a good kid , but he 's very willful , he does n't like to be told what to do . diane : okay , so let 's clarify . there have been other occasions where michael has disappeared before the night that claudia was killed ? olivia : absolutely . diane : there have been other incidences where no one knew where michael was for hours , sometimes days at a time ? olivia : yes . diane : thank you . no further questions . i reserve the right to recall this witness . judge carroll : you may step down , ms. falconeri .

[ scene_break ] jason : so kiefer was the one who had been beating kristina , not ethan . and he did it again last night . when alexis brought kristina to the hospital , she finally id 'd kiefer . spinelli : why would kristina lie ? jason : to protect kiefer . i mean , she did n't want sonny to kill him . spinelli : i guess that 's understandable , that fear of mr. sir , but why not share that same concern for ethan 's life and limb ? jason : well , because i think sonny and luke are long - time friends . and i bet kristina thought that would be enough for sonny not to kill ethan . spinelli : now the battering boyfriend is dead . jason : kiefer was found on the side of the road less than an hour after kristina admitted the truth . spinelli : so then her fears were warranted ? vengeance was exacted on mr. sir 's orders perhaps with stone cold behind the wheel . jason : no , i did n't do anything and neither did sonny . but alexis is the only person who is not suspecting me of running kiefer down . spinelli : and that 's unusual . usually alexis is first in line to suspect you of mayhem . jason : exactly . that 's why i want you to start investigating alexis davis as soon as we get home . [ scene_break ] alexis : i came home and i heard yelling in the house . and then i saw kiefer running out . and then i walked in and i saw that kristina was crumpled in a ball on the floor and she was bruised and bleeding . and i knew in that instant that it was kiefer who had done this to her . it was this boy that i encouraged to go out with her ... that had beat her to a pulp . diane : all right . enough with the mea culpa . you feel like crap because kiefer fooled all of us . shame on us . but it still does n't explain how he ended up dead . alexis : i got her in the car . i did n't want to wait for an ambulance . i got her in the car and i kept talking to her because i did n't want her to go to sleep . and i just felt like i was going to lose it . and i was trying to get control of myself . and i looked up and i saw him . at least i thought it was him . and i hit him . i did n't stop . i did n't swerve . i did n't put on the brake . i just kept going . i drove to the hospital . i did n't mean to do it . i do n't know what happened . i did n't mean to do it .

[ scene_break ] sonny : you gon na get creative on the stand like your boyfriend did ? johnny : every word i said was the truth . sonny : really ? considering i never hit a woman . but i 'm the monster and your sister is the innocent victim . johnny : i 'll be the first to say claudia was no innocent , but you certainly made a victim out of her . sonny : right , right . how about the hell she put my family through , the damage she did ? you can go ahead and finish what you started . olivia : are you hard of hearing ? i 'm gon na tell the truth to the lawyers . nothing more , nothing less . sonny : right . i guess if you make me out to be the vicious animal , it would justify you lying to me about dante . johnny : you know , god knows what would have happened to dante if you would have been around when he grew up . he could be dead by now or he could be brain damaged . sonny : speaking of brain damage , you knew your sister got michael shot , put into a coma , and all you did was cover it up . olivia : sonny , you 're not doing yourself any favors here , okay . sonny : then it 's unanimous . because i know damn well you 're not gon na do any favors for me . johnny : it 's okay .

olivia : that man . sonny corinthos . claire : so when you told the court that mr. corinthos knocked you up , dante falconeri was the result ? olivia : that is correct . claire : is n't it unusual that an undercover officer would be assigned to investigate his own father ? diane : objection , your honor . as the prosecution has already established while leading detective falconeri through his own testimony , the defendant and the detective did not know they were related at the time . claire : until detective falconeri wound up shot and bleeding -- diane : objection , your honor . judge carroll : sustained . strike from the record . ms. walsh , i do not find your courtroom gymnastics entertaining . ask straightforward questions on matters relevant to the case , or i will dismiss the witness . claire : yes , your honor . ms. falconeri , do you know why your son and the defendant did not know they were related ? olivia : because i chose not to tell them . claire : and why would a loving mother not tell her own son about his father ? olivia : do i really have to answer that question ? i was 15 years old , and i was stupid . that 's like asking me why i wore scrunchies and acid wash jeans . it just felt like the thing to do at the time . judge carroll : i agree with ms. falconeri . last chance , ms. walsh . ask something useful or dismiss the witness . claire : ms. falconeri , do you know where michael corinthos iii was on the night claudia zacchara corinthos was murdered ? olivia : i was with mr. corinthos at his house that night . sonny was beside himself with worry because claudia kidnapped carly and she had gone into labor . jax arrived later that night looking for michael . claire : so michael left his house on harbor view road where he resided with his mother and jasper jax ? olivia : that 's why jax was looking for him , yes . claire : and what happened after mr. jax arrived ? olivia : sonny received a call from sam -- samantha mccall . she said that carly had given birth , that carly and the baby were okay , and sonny left shortly after that . claire : and where did he go ? olivia : i did n't ask . he did n't tell . claire : can you describe the defendant 's demeanor after he received the phone call ? olivia : he seemed relieved that carly and the baby were okay . claire : he did n't seem angry or upset ? diane : objection . calls for speculation . judge carroll : sustained . claire : after sonny left his residence , there was still no sign of michael ? olivia : no . claire : was n't anyone worried about him ? olivia : well , i think everyone 's primary concern was for carly and the baby . i do n't think michael was the main focus . claire : and why do you say that ? olivia : well , michael was upset about a fight that took place earlier in the evening between sonny and jax . claire : and what had they fought about ? olivia : sonny came over to the jax household to pick up michael and morgan . jax wanted the boys to stay with him . claire : and was this upsetting for michael ? could this have been the reason why he was incited to climb in the car -- diane : objection . your honor , once again , the prosecution is testifying for her own witness . judge carroll : sustained . ms. walsh , i sense you preparing for another tumbling run . i suggest you reconsider . claire : ms. falconeri , after mr. corinthos left his home after receiving the phone call , presumably to be notified that carly and her child were safe , no one knew where michael was , is that correct ? olivia : as far as i know , yes . claire : thank you , ms. falconeri . no further questions . diane : would it be safe to say that michael 's behavior has been erratic ever since he emerged from his coma a year ago ? olivia : yes . diane : have you ever known michael to disappear before ? olivia : yes . diane : can you elaborate ? olivia : well , he disappeared to mexico last summer . and on one more than one occasion , i know that he 's left his mother 's house to go over to his father 's house without permission . michael 's a good kid , but he 's very willful , he does n't like to be told what to do . diane : okay , so let 's clarify . there have been other occasions where michael has disappeared before the night that claudia was killed ? olivia : absolutely . diane : there have been other incidences where no one knew where michael was for hours , sometimes days at a time ? olivia : yes . diane : thank you . no further questions . i reserve the right to recall this witness . judge carroll : you may step down , ms. falconeri .

[ scene_break ] natalie : marty 's not my favorite person , but she 's a really , really good doctor , and if anyone can help jess , i really think she can . brody : i hope you 're right . i want her back , natalie . natalie : i know . me , too . i miss my sister , and mom 's gon na be coming home with bree soon , and what are we gon na do if jessica still does n't recognize her own little girl ? brody : i 've missed bree so much . i do n't want to stop being a part of her life . natalie : well , what are you talking about ? i mean , of course you 're gon na be a part of her life . bree 's crazy about you . brody : but if jessica does n't want me around ... natalie : do n't give up on her , brody . brody : never . and just to seal the deal , i made her agree to a second date . natalie : good ! maybe this time you 'll pick a place that cristian wo n't show up . brody : yeah , i hear croatia 's nice this time of year . natalie : ha ha ! that 's pretty good . i know it 's hard to keep a happy face ... when jessica 's giving all of her attention to someone else . brody : yeah . that 's almost worse than when the person you love is n't in your life the way you want them to be . natalie : yeah , tell me about it . brody : kind of like what you 're going through with john . natalie : who -- who said anything about john ? brody : you did n't have to , natalie . it 's obvious how you feel about him . [ scene_break ] john : allison perkins claimed she was here the day melinda died , but we were n't sure if it was true . mrs. stevens : yes , she was here . kelly : allison said that my mother was already dead when she got here , but we still have to wonder whether allison killed her . mrs. stevens : oh , no . an orderly found melinda unconscious in her bed . emergency staff was called immediately to try to revive her . john : but she was alive when the orderly found her . mrs. stevens : yes , and allison perkins did n't arrive until after that . john : how can you be so sure of the timing ? mrs. stevens : ms. perkins had gotten through security by claiming that she was melinda 's sister dorian lord . i was called to tell ms. lord that her sister had passed away . but since i 'd met dorian lord on several occasions , i knew i was dealing with an imposter . the minute i started to question ms. perkins , she took off . kelly : okay , this is not making any sense . even if allison was telling the truth , it does n't explain the phone calls . mrs. stevens : i 'm sorry i have n't been more help , but if it 's any consolation , i know that your mother loved you very much . as a matter of fact , she left something for you . we were going to send it , but i 'll get it for you now . i 'll be right back . [ door closes ] kelly : do you think this woman has any reason to lie to us ? john : no , i do n't . kelly : so this whole trip has just been a waste . caller was a crackpot , and my mother died of natural causes . john : i did n't say that .

[ scene_break ] jessica : well , then maybe scared is the wrong word . i guess i 'm just a little nervous because i just want everything to be perfect . marty : that 's putting a lot of pressure on yourself . jessica : well , no , i just -- i love cristian so much that i want it to be everything that he 's dreamt of so after we make love we can go back to where we should be . marty : that 's what you want and what cristian wanted at some point , but we need to think about what he wants now . jessica : you know , marty , you say you 're my friend , but every time i tell you what 's in my heart , you just tell me i ca n't have it . marty : no , i am your friend . first and foremost , i am your friend , but i 'm also a therapist . and sometimes i have to help people see things that they do n't want to see . jessica : you know , i have to get to the school . marty : okay , jess , but we still need to talk , okay ? i will drop everything to talk with you . jessica : you know , you 're just like natalie , marty . you say that you want to help me , but you really do n't . you only care about yourself . and you know , you better watch out because she might steal your boyfriend just like she stole mine . [ scene_break ] natalie : no , no , no . john and i are just friends . we were until just recently . brody : i 'm sorry . i had no business bringing him up . natalie : well , i mean , if it 's that obvious how i feel ... brody : i should n't have said that . natalie : i kind of wonder if that 's what other people are thinking . brody : i do n't think so . they have n't seen what i 've seen . like when you were willing to do anything to get john out of jail or when he pulled you out of that car wreck . you guys have been through a lot together . natalie : yeah . yeah , we have . brody : but still , i should n't ... should n't read anything into it . natalie : no . no ! you 're right . oh , my god . i tried to shut it off . i tried , but i ca n't . i 'm falling in love with john again , and there 's not a damn thing i can do about it .

[ drawer opens ] john : it 's nice . kelly : yeah . john : oh . thanks . kelly : anything jumping out at you ? john : well , there is a call from extension 4441 made to la boulaie the day before melinda died . mrs. stevens : 4441 is the line the patients use -- only with permission , of course . kelly : my mother called dorian . she was excited about my visit . john : hmm . here we go . 2 calls to kelly 's number on the dates that we have . kelly : from the same extension . john : no . different extension . 4400 . mrs. stevens : that 's not possible . john : why is that ? mrs. stevens : because that 's my office phone . and the only person with any access to it is me .

[ scene_break ] natalie : it ca n't stay that way forever , brody . i mean , even if jessica does n't get her memory back , she 's gon na grow up . i mean , nobody stays a teenager the rest of their life . brody : unless it 's the only way they think they can survive . natalie : what do you mean ? brody : jessica feels safe right now . it 's like if she stays where she is right now , she 'll never have to remember the last thing that happened before i found her . natalie : when her father nearly raped her . [ scene_break ] marty : i know it 's hard to give up on cristian , but has he given you any reason to believe that he could ever return your feelings ? jessica : well ... the way he looks at me sometimes . marty : yeah , but that 's open to interpretation -- jessica : i 'm not imagining it , okay ? i 'm still in cristian 's heart . i know that , and especially with the prom coming up , everything 's gon na change . marty : and why is that ? jessica : well , prom is our night . you know , we 've been planning it for so long , and after that night , we 're gon na belong to each other forever . marty : so by that you mean ... jessica : we 're gon na make love . marty : and that will be your first time ? jessica : i know what you 're thinking . you know , i was married , and i have a child , but none of that seems real to me . but cristian is real , and when i give myself to him , he 's gon na be the first and only man in my heart . marty : so you 're saying you -- you feel like a virgin . jessica : yes , i do . marty : jess , do you -- do you think it 's significant that your memory stopped before you had sex with anyone ? jessica : it 's not like i did it on purpose . i mean , i did n't flip a switch and just shut those memories off . marty : well , what if you did ? [ scene_break ] dani : you know , there are so many great scenes , like when starr blasts todd for raping her boyfriend 's mother . téa : daniella , that 's enough , all right ? dani : oh , and then todd tries to kill starr 's boyfriend , and she freaks out . you know , i do n't think i 'll have any problem doing that , do you ? \ todd : okay , that 's enough . dani : or what ? you 'll throw me down the stairs like you did your other daughter ? téa : okay , this is not the time or the place . i am really sorry , todd . dani : do n't apologize to him . are you crazy ? todd : dani , i know that you hate me . but ... it 's never gon na change the fact that i am your father . none of us can change that fact . dani : it 's a word . it does n't mean anything . todd : you do n't have to forgive me . i 'm not asking you to forgive me or even like me ... but i 'm pretty sure that someday you 're gon na need your father , and ... i 'm gon na be there for you . [ scene_break ] john : these are the dates and times of the calls kelly received . they were made from inside this institution . mrs. stevens : from here ? john : yes . mrs. stevens : you 're sure ? john : mmm . law enforcement is of course taking this very seriously because there were threats made to ms. cramer 's family before melinda 's death . perhaps you recognize this woman ? kelly : her name is allison perkins . mrs. stevens : yes , i do . she was here ... the day melinda died . [ scene_break ] brody : at first we all assumed that jessica 's memory loss was because of the electroshock . marty thinks it could be the emotional shock of what mitch was about to do to her . natalie : poor jess . i mean , it makes sense . brody : obviously we ca n't force things by just telling jess what mitch did , but if she could somehow ... acknowledge what happened without getting torn apart all over again . natalie : i know . that 's the hard part . brody : exactly . if we go about it wrong , jessica could end up in even worse shape . so i 'm just praying marty will find a way to get jess where she needs to go . [ scene_break ] jessica : you think i did this to myself on purpose ? marty : no , no ! jessica : because it 's hell to live in a world where everyone you ever knew thinks that you 're a freak , but where i am , it 's the only place that makes sense to me . marty : i know how hard it is . jessica : no , you do n't . no one does . marty : okay , you say that you like where you are now because it makes sense . life is simple and innocent . when you think about making love for the first time , is there a part of you that worries that that might change ? jessica : i trust cristian . marty : of course you do , but it 's only natural to have doubts or questions . jessica : oh , well , obviously , if you 've never done it before , you 're gon na be a little scared . marty : okay , well , let 's think about that for a minute , then , okay ? try to figure out what scares you . [ scene_break ] natalie : marty 's not my favorite person , but she 's a really , really good doctor , and if anyone can help jess , i really think she can . brody : i hope you 're right . i want her back , natalie . natalie : i know . me , too . i miss my sister , and mom 's gon na be coming home with bree soon , and what are we gon na do if jessica still does n't recognize her own little girl ? brody : i 've missed bree so much . i do n't want to stop being a part of her life . natalie : well , what are you talking about ? i mean , of course you 're gon na be a part of her life . bree 's crazy about you . brody : but if jessica does n't want me around ... natalie : do n't give up on her , brody . brody : never . and just to seal the deal , i made her agree to a second date . natalie : good ! maybe this time you 'll pick a place that cristian wo n't show up . brody : yeah , i hear croatia 's nice this time of year . natalie : ha ha ! that 's pretty good . i know it 's hard to keep a happy face ... when jessica 's giving all of her attention to someone else . brody : yeah . that 's almost worse than when the person you love is n't in your life the way you want them to be . natalie : yeah , tell me about it . brody : kind of like what you 're going through with john . natalie : who -- who said anything about john ? brody : you did n't have to , natalie . it 's obvious how you feel about him . [ scene_break ] john : allison perkins claimed she was here the day melinda died , but we were n't sure if it was true . mrs. stevens : yes , she was here . kelly : allison said that my mother was already dead when she got here , but we still have to wonder whether allison killed her . mrs. stevens : oh , no . an orderly found melinda unconscious in her bed . emergency staff was called immediately to try to revive her . john : but she was alive when the orderly found her . mrs. stevens : yes , and allison perkins did n't arrive until after that . john : how can you be so sure of the timing ? mrs. stevens : ms. perkins had gotten through security by claiming that she was melinda 's sister dorian lord . i was called to tell ms. lord that her sister had passed away . but since i 'd met dorian lord on several occasions , i knew i was dealing with an imposter . the minute i started to question ms. perkins , she took off . kelly : okay , this is not making any sense . even if allison was telling the truth , it does n't explain the phone calls . mrs. stevens : i 'm sorry i have n't been more help , but if it 's any consolation , i know that your mother loved you very much . as a matter of fact , she left something for you . we were going to send it , but i 'll get it for you now . i 'll be right back . [ door closes ] kelly : do you think this woman has any reason to lie to us ? john : no , i do n't . kelly : so this whole trip has just been a waste . caller was a crackpot , and my mother died of natural causes . john : i did n't say that . [ scene_break ] langston : i broke up with ford last night , okay ? what , you do n't believe me ? cole : you have n't given anybody a lot to believe in lately . langston : i know . i 'm sorry . cole : hey , do n't tell me sorry . tell markko . langston : look , i do n't want to hurt markko . i love him . and if you love him , too , you wo n't want to tell him something that 's only gon na make things worse . sometimes the best way to be a friend is to keep your mouth shut . starr : okay , i 'm sorry . i do n't -- i do n't feel right keeping things from cole . and i told him not to tell markko and he said he would n't . cole : so long as it 's really over . but if i ever find out that it 's not , all bets are off . langston : it 's over ! okay , i swear ! cole : and do n't even think about asking starr to lie for you again . langston : do n't worry . i wo n't be trusting starr with any more of my secrets . i got ta go to school . starr : ohh ! i should go , too . cole : wait , wait . you 're mad at me now ? starr : yes , i 'm mad at you now ! this was supposed to stay between us . cole : but it 's not just about us . my best friend 's being taken advantage of , and i do n't like that . starr : well , i do n't like it when you 're going to do something and you do something else . cole : starr , wait . come on . starr : no , i ca n't . i 'll talk to you when i get home . [ slams door ] [ knock on door ] hannah : hey . are you okay ? cole : no , i 'm not . [ scene_break ] matthew : dani 's new here , too . she came from a boarding school in london . her mom made her move here because -- nate : wait . dude . dude . i was n't asking for her life story . i just want to know if she 's been in plays before 'cause i 'm taking this project really seriously so i hope she is , too . matthew : yeah , i 'm sure she will . nate : great . 'cause the two of us -- we got ta be on the same page . we have some pretty intimate scenes together . [ scene_break ] greg : it 's great that you and matthew will be working together . just make sure that the drama in the play does n't turn out in a drama in real life . destiny : matthew and i are just friends , greg . greg : okay . that 's what you keep saying . destiny : because it 's true . i 'm not hung up on him anymore . greg : okay . but you know when you 're playing boyfriend and girlfriend ... destiny : you are the last person to be handing out advice , especially after what happened between you and rachel . greg : okay . point taken . destiny : yeah . greg : yeah . look , des , i guess what i 'm trying to say is i just do n't want to see you get your heart broken . [ scene_break ] dani : you 'll never ride to my rescue , okay , because i 'll never need you for anything . i 'm gon na head over to school with destiny . good - bye . téa : well , that was horrible . awkward . todd : do n't pretend to feel sorry for me . téa : what are you talking about ? i hate it when she talks to you like that . todd : why is that ? it gives you such a good excuse . téa : for what ? todd : for not dealing with us . you still love me , but you 're not gon na do anything about it . téa : where 's this coming from all of a sudden ? todd : it 's not sudden . it 's been there since the day you told me i had a daughter . and we were together then and we would have stayed together . but dani hated me . and you let that change everything , did n't you ? téa : todd . todd : do you really love me , or do you not ? oh , no , no , do n't answer . it 's okay . do n't . forget it . i do n't need an answer . i know how you feel anyway . even jack can see it . téa : oh , jack said i was still in love with you ? todd : he made it more about both of us , but yeah . téa : what did you say to him ? todd : i said `` i do n't know what you 're talking about . `` ha ! but be honest , you have n't moved on with anyone else , right ? téa : well , neither have you , have you ? todd : answer me one thing . if it 's dani that 's keeping us apart , what if that changed ? and what if she was able to let go of the hatred and the resentment and ... maybe even accept me as her father ? would that bring us back together ? [ scene_break ] jessica : well , then maybe scared is the wrong word . i guess i 'm just a little nervous because i just want everything to be perfect . marty : that 's putting a lot of pressure on yourself . jessica : well , no , i just -- i love cristian so much that i want it to be everything that he 's dreamt of so after we make love we can go back to where we should be . marty : that 's what you want and what cristian wanted at some point , but we need to think about what he wants now . jessica : you know , marty , you say you 're my friend , but every time i tell you what 's in my heart , you just tell me i ca n't have it . marty : no , i am your friend . first and foremost , i am your friend , but i 'm also a therapist . and sometimes i have to help people see things that they do n't want to see . jessica : you know , i have to get to the school . marty : okay , jess , but we still need to talk , okay ? i will drop everything to talk with you . jessica : you know , you 're just like natalie , marty . you say that you want to help me , but you really do n't . you only care about yourself . and you know , you better watch out because she might steal your boyfriend just like she stole mine . [ scene_break ] natalie : no , no , no . john and i are just friends . we were until just recently . brody : i 'm sorry . i had no business bringing him up . natalie : well , i mean , if it 's that obvious how i feel ... brody : i should n't have said that . natalie : i kind of wonder if that 's what other people are thinking . brody : i do n't think so . they have n't seen what i 've seen . like when you were willing to do anything to get john out of jail or when he pulled you out of that car wreck . you guys have been through a lot together . natalie : yeah . yeah , we have . brody : but still , i should n't ... should n't read anything into it . natalie : no . no ! you 're right . oh , my god . i tried to shut it off . i tried , but i ca n't . i 'm falling in love with john again , and there 's not a damn thing i can do about it . [ scene_break ] mrs. stevens : melinda really enjoyed her time in the pottery studio . we did n't send it with her other belongings because it was n't finished . it had n't been fired yet . kelly : it 's beautiful . mrs. stevens : she made it very clear that she wanted you to have it . john : look , if we can get back to the phone calls for a minute , we know they came from inside this building . we just do n't know which extension . perhaps i could look at your internal phone records for a second ? that would be a big help . mrs. stevens : let me get it for you . john : thank you . [ drawer opens ] john : it 's nice . kelly : yeah . john : oh . thanks . kelly : anything jumping out at you ? john : well , there is a call from extension 4441 made to la boulaie the day before melinda died . mrs. stevens : 4441 is the line the patients use -- only with permission , of course . kelly : my mother called dorian . she was excited about my visit . john : hmm . here we go . 2 calls to kelly 's number on the dates that we have . kelly : from the same extension . john : no . different extension . 4400 . mrs. stevens : that 's not possible . john : why is that ? mrs. stevens : because that 's my office phone . and the only person with any access to it is me . [ scene_break ] téa : look , i do n't think it 's healthy for us to fantasize , not that i 'm fantasizing . i mean , look , i just -- oh . my point is , daniella is not ready to accept you , okay , not yet . todd : yeah , she 's so anxious to rip me apart , she wants to do it in front of a live audience . fortunately , i 've done some damage control . téa : what is this , the script ? todd : yeah , with a few changes . i mean , i told starr originally that i was gon na leave things alone , but if there 's a character written in there that 's supposed to be based on me , do n't you think i have the right to weigh in ? anyway , i just e - mailed some revisions for her to give to langston . téa : `` starr : i was so afraid to tell you i was pregnant , dad . todd : you should n't have been , sweetheart . i 'll always support you even if i do n't agree with you . `` way to rewrite history , todd . todd : you ever heard of dramatic license ? téa : this is gon na backfire , todd , in a big way . daniella knows what happened . if you whitewash it , she 's gon na have even less respect for you . todd : so i should just stand there and let her disembowel me in front of a live audience ? téa : maybe you could try to think about it in a different way . maybe it would be healthy for daniella to say these things out loud . todd : healthy how ? téa : well , it could be cathartic for her , you know ? a way for her to release all these bad feelings , get them out in the air . todd : you 're a lawyer . you 're not a shrink . téa : i 'm a mother who knows her daughter . this could be a way for daniella to start things new with you . think about it . understanding how starr got past things with you could help her get past things with you . and then ... who knows . where are you going ? todd : i 'm going to go talk to starr before she shows anyone those rewrites . [ scene_break ] john : it 's pretty obvious someone used your phone . mrs. stevens : i do n't know how . i always lock up when i leave . kelly : well , it 's possible you forgot that day . those calls came from here . john : or someone knew how to make it look like they did . mrs. stevens : i 'm sorry , but no matter what your caller said , i refuse to believe that melinda cramer died of anything other than natural causes . if you uncover anything that might prove otherwise , i 'm sure you 'll let me know , lieutenant . but i 've told you all i know . john : i -- just one more thing . [ scene_break ] natalie : i ca n't believe i just laid it all out there like that . i mean , i have n't even really admitted this to myself . brody : you know it 's not gon na go any further . this stays between you and me . natalie : thanks . brody : i 've leaned on you a lot lately . so if there 's anything you need , and if you need anyone to talk to , it 's the least i can do . natalie : there 's nothing to talk about . john 's unavailable . it 's as simple as that . brody : it hurts when you feel one way and the other person does n't . natalie : see , actually , i think that john does feel something . i think he feels the same way i do . [ scene_break ] markko : oh , ford . you headed back to campus ? ford : yeah . why ? markko : do you mind if we talk on the way there about my final project ? i have a couple technique questions for you . ford : well , lucky for you , technique 's my specialty . markko : well , great . do you have some time to look at footage this afternoon ? ford : uh , sorry , rivera . booked something .

[ scene_break ] langston : i 'm sorry if i caused problems for you and cole . starr : it 's okay . just have to probably suck it up and apologize to him again , but we 'll be fine . langston : of course you will . you 're starr and cole . nothing can break you guys up . [ scene_break ] hannah : you and starr had a fight ? cole : how did you guess ? hannah : i saw her leaving here . she looked like she wanted to kill someone . you do n't look that good yourself . cole : well , the fight was n't even about us -- i mean , not really . it 's about a friend we know who 's getting treated like crap . hannah : yeah , well , i 've decided i do n't like being treated that way either . you 'll be happy to know i told our friend ford to shove it . cole : good for you . hannah : he 's already got himself another victim . can you believe that ? cole : yeah , i can believe it . hannah : well , i am over it . you know what , it feels great . oh ! cole : oh , my god . are you okay ? hannah : yeah . it was n't hot . i just -- this is a brand - new shirt . i have to get this off before it stains . cole : bathroom . hannah : thanks . cole : geez ... hannah : hey , can i borrow a shirt while this dries ?
